Networking and knowledge exchange
So besides listening to interesting speakers a large part of the conference also consisted of virtual discussions and workshops with all participants. During the breaks a lot of the participants took the opportunity to take part in digital networking that were offered. There were a lot of engaging and interesting discussions where several new contacts and new opportunities for cooperation were created. Something we are very happy about since the emphasis of STEW is on two main areas; networking and knowledge exchange.
