Project Meeting in Klagenfurt

16. 9. 2019, Angelika Wiegele

Mid September the Slovene and Austrian BiqBin project members updated each other at a meeting in Klagenfurt.

Melanie, Nicolo, and Timotej presented their latest results. Discussions on and decisions about the next steps were taken and also ideas for follow up projects have been explored. We definitely want to continue our joint work for some more time! :-)
