Description:
The coronavirus is still affecting the way we need to work for a time to come. Physical meetings are held digitally until we in a safe way can travel and meet, which hopefully will be soon. In the meantime, we don´t let this stop us from continuing our good cooperation in the digital way we have learned these past months.
Today we had our first out of two online meetings that will take place this fall. On the agenda for the day were very interesting updates from the project management, from each work package manager and from Region Värmland who told about their multistreaming test beds. At the end of the meeting, the partners were divided into different groups to continue to discuss transnational activities that will be presented at the next online meeting in November.
