The three-year project is slowly but surely approaching the finishing line. Therefore, “walking the final mile” was on everyone’s mind when discussing the topics focused on the finalisation of some of the main outputs. These included e.g. the website appearance and the EICAA Digital Platform, which just needed a few finishing touches after the partner meeting. The pilot round was another topic that has been important over the last couple of months. All partners participated in delivering the necessary data by applying the pilot round in their own organisations and now it was time to talk about further plans like the elaboration of case studies as well as the possibilities of increasing the user base of EICAA. The usability eye tracking study in regard to the

EICAA-DP will be conducted by Adsata, but it already showed the great potential with which the project could be expanded in the future. This also led to discussions about the different options of sustaining EICAA after the project comes to an end at the end of 2023.

The sunny weather next to the sea made the stay extraordinary for all partners as did the Spanish culinary specialties. On top of that, the group got to know the city of Mataró through a guided tour organised by TecnoCampus. From artistic aspects all the way to architectural aspects (especially regarding Antoni Gaudí), the EICAA consortium learned a lot about the Catalan culture. And after the transnational partner meeting in Spain, there is one last partner meeting planned on 6th of November at Antwerp Management School to come together and discuss the important steps regarding the future of EICAA.

Surprised with a cake! During the partner meeting, Louisa Mach (University of Hohenheim) celebrated her 25th birthday.

Jaume Teodoro (TecnoCampus) provided an interesting insight into the history of TecnoCampus and Mataró.

During the guided tour, the EICAA partners learned a lot about the city of Mataró and the Catalan culture.
