IST-EC2 partners were active at IST 2006 in Helsinki where we held a successful partnering session and had a strategically placed booth that generated a lot of traffic and interest in the project.

IST-EC2 partners are very active in supporting the FP7 launch and are participating in Information Days in both Canada and Europe in the coming months.  See the Event section in web site for up to date information.
