Our CORTEX2 team gathered in Castellón, Spain, from March 21st to 22nd, 2024, for our third Progress Meeting, graciously hosted by Universitat Jaume I. The purpose of this meeting was to delve into the latest developments within our project, discuss the significant milestones we have achieved, conduct pilot demonstrations, and plan for the future.
Representatives from all ten organizations comprising CORTEX2 travelled from all over Europe to reconnect, update each other on their respective contributions to the project, and align on the crucial next steps necessary to continue advancing towards our goals.
During the first day of the meeting, we carried out a comprehensive review covering different areas of our work. From our extended reality modules and services to the ethical, legal, and social implications of the immersive technologies we are developing.
Furthermore, we had the opportunity to discuss our progress in innovation, dissemination, and exploitation strategies, as well as Financial Support for Third Parties (FSTP), emphasising the collaborative efforts that lie ahead in selecting the third parties from our Open Call #1, which we hope to announce soon.
We dedicated the second day to demonstrating and testing our three pilots. This allowed us to gather valuable insights and feedback on our progress to date and illuminate areas where further improvements are needed. We also take the opportunity to record videos of the process to be able to show the advancements we have made.
We concluded this fruitful and productive meeting, which marked another milestone in our CORTEX2 journey, with a summary of key takeaways, conclusions, and clear next steps.
Special thanks to our amazing colleagues at Universitat Jaume I for an excellent welcome in Castellón!
