Solution

Due to the Coronavirus emergency, the last plenary meetings were held remotely, nonetheless with all our partners putting all their efforts on the project implementation! From Turin, Florence, Madrid, Bonn and Stockholm, all partners were connected to deliver a great work together!

Due to the current emergency, a project extension is discussed with the Commission – in order to implement the field trials when the emergency will be hopefully passed.

The apps developed for the field trials, AsthmaWatch and GoPongo, saw huge progress in their implementations – a first internal pilot with beta-testers is ongoing for GoPongo!

The integration of the system is even more advanced – the team had shown great commitment even in this delicate situation.
