Also, another goal of the Kickoff meeting was to present the guidelines of each work package for the upcoming six months period, and the persons-partners who will be involved in each of them, for the preparation of the deliverables.

It was the introduction where they presented their work plans among the partners who, during the “informal conversations”, discussed for the first time topics related to the implementation of the project objectives.
