Dans un climat de collaboration et d'enthousiasme, les différents work packages qui seront développés au cours des 30 prochains mois, période à l'issue de laquelle le projet arrivera à son terme, ont été analysés.
Un démarrage positif qui pose des bases solides pour un travail commun et un impact fort au niveau européen.
