WISDOM Final Event
The WISDOM Final Event

The WISDOM Final Event took place on the 19th of January at Cardiff University. This event showcased the achievements of the WISDOM project, showing the work that has been done in our pilots and the key research results of the project. The event also showcased the tangible outputs of the project through an interactive exhibition of our sensing devices and user interfaces.

In addition to purely project dissemination, the event also provided valuable insights for the final stages of work being conducted in the project, enabling us to network, gather the views of key stakeholders in the water industry through our panel discussion and the opportunity for collaboration and networking with the ICT4Water cluster, through an open call for presentations from other projects in the cluster (WaterInnEU, ISS-EWATUS and ICEWater).

There were a mix of attendees - Water Industry, Academy and research Center, ICT, Optimisation, Data Visualisation - participants at our event, with representatives from across Europe. Additionally,  three other ICT4Water projects were represented.
