  • Achieve key learnings for all workshop participants, independently from their domains
  • Add value through relevant keynote speeches
  • Provide networking opportunities
  • Cover topics of main general interest
  • Provide input on the development of the ePractice.eu portal

The participants' role: Participants are expected to contribute with their expertise to one of the three working groups, where real-life good practice cases will be evaluated in order to analyse the challenges encountered and how to overcome them.
