Our coordinator presenting the project’s status.

On the 8th of October 2024, ROBIN partners met to discuss the project’s progress, setting the stage for a collaborative continuation.

The QPL coordination team provided an overview of the project’s current status, highlighting key achievements and milestones reached so far. The results of the alpha testing round – focused on the usability of tools – were discussed by the Steinbeis Europa Zentrum team, along with valuable feedback from partners aimed at fine-tuning these tools.

A comprehensive overview was presented by QPL, detailing the progress of activities related to establishing and operating the regional governance models. The Open Call, which runs until early December, was also addressed, encouraging partners to disseminate it actively. For more information on the Open Call, see here.

The regional node teams then presented updates on the implementation of their Validation Plans. They discussed their support actions, timelines, and potential challenges encountered in their respective regions.

Following this, discussions arose on the evaluation questionnaires from the alpha testing phase by Pedal. Partners shared their thoughts and the White Research team presented the status of dissemination KPIs and the next steps for the dissemination and communication activities.

Key steps for the upcoming semester were thoroughly presented, ensuring that all partners were aligned on their next actions. The day concluded with a meeting of the Steering Committee, where strategic decisions were made.

As we move into the next phase of the project, we look forward to implementing feedback from this meeting and continuing our collaborative efforts toward developing bioeconomy strategies at a regional level.
