First AuRora expert workshop held successfully
We would like to thank all workshop participants for the constructive and stimulating discussions and for their cooperation. Despite the digital implementation, a pleasant working atmosphere was created among the 15 participants, in which it was also easy for us to share and further develop our ideas and results with the invited industry representatives.
We are also pleased about the offers of cooperation that have arisen and hope to be able to incorporate them into our project planning in the near future.
We wish all participants a wonderful pre-Christmas period, continued success and good health.
See you at the next workshop & best regards
