News and Highlights
There is a new European project EXPRESS – this is studying the development of the “Smart Systems Ecosystem” and what measures, funding programmes or other initiatives will help Europe develop an active, vibrant and world leading Smart Systems technology sector. Our friends at ESP are one of the partners in EXPRESS and need your input. The project has just started and they are leading the analysis of the challenges facing the sector – these will be used as a foundation for the rest of the two year programme of activity.
