Some Work Packages had already started, such as WP1, WP2 and WP8. The opportunity was for them to confirm the cooperation agreements discussed during the previous meeting in June and validate the results already achieved.
Regarding WP1, it was the occasion to present the Project Management Handbook and establish a reporting mechanism, internally.
WP8 consisted of a lively discussion of the logo options as presented by Antonio Gennarelli, Project Manager from IDEC SA, leader of the WP8. The options were then refined and eventually became the official logo of the project.
UNIWA went through the first Task of WP2, namely the collection of stakeholders for the National Workshops: it gave a vision and scope for the activity, and a deadline for the Workshop – namely December 2022.
INOVA+ took the opportunity to kickoff also the Quality Assurance process for the project.
The partnership finally agreed to organize the first in-person meeting of SECOVE, to be hosted in Athens on the 28th and 29th of November, 2022.
