On 9 April 2019, the starting signal was given for the first kick-off meeting at EBNER, where all consortium partners were represented.

After the first coming together in the Hicon Lounge, the agenda and the next steps of the joint research project were immediately worked on with full vigour. Due to the different perspectives and approaches of the individual partners, exciting discussions were stimulated that will point the way for the coming investigations and research. A big item on the agenda of this kick-off meeting was the joint brainstorming, where the group once again recorded goals, future steps, necessities and possible challenges of the project on paper. By the end of the day, many open questions had already been clarified and every single participant took away to-do's to work on for the next workshop, which will take place in May 2019.
