Important results from the project
The goal of the project was to develop a strong proposal to submit to the EIC Accelerator stage 1. The goal was partially achieved, but the submission of the proposal was postponed to await approval of a patent application.
Expected long term effects
The long-term impact is expected to be that we will receive support to develop our next commercial product from the EU.
