🚀 The Midterm Consortium Meeting kicked off today!

Over a course of 3 days the ows.eu team is assembled at @Radboud_uni to finetune the roadmap for the second half of the project timeline. The agenda is packed with technical, legal, ethical, + economical questions to tackle. But there's also time to chat + socialize.
