The FiberTies network welcomes companies and institutions who are interested in participating in project meeting with all partners at the partner institute VTT, Espoo, Finland.
The purpose of this meeting is to establish one or more project groups for a large grant application. The outcome aim is that it will result in project applications for H2020, Nordic Built, research councils within the EU and Nordic countries.
