It’s August, many of us are sweltering in hot conditions and it’s the holiday season. So, this month we have a brief combined summer newsletter and we’ll be back with a full edition in September. Many of you were with us in Rotterdam for the General Assembly and ERF. And how good that was! The memories will live on. Meanwhile it’s a new year for euRobotics. We have a few reflections from some of our newly elected directors. As always, we’ve found some robotics-related stories from the European media and there’s a couple of calendar items that should be in your diaries. As we always say, euRobotics is a community and we value your participation. Your stories interest us, so if you have news to share, send us a message via communication@eu-robotics.net. We plan ahead so please give us plenty of advance notice about future events and activities. Pictures are always welcome, too. Meanwhile, enjoy our summer newsletter.
The Newsletter Team
Editorial and Production
This Newsletter has been written and produced by the euRobotics newsletter production team: Reinhard Lafrenz, Corina Radu (design), Marie Fortems (proof-reading) and Steve Doswell, with guest contributions from around the euRobotics community. All comments, enquiries and requests to reproduce content from the newsletter should be sent to the euRobotics Office team via communication@eu-robotics.net. Marta Palau Franco has left the team for a new role with the European Commission. We will miss her. We really valued her contributions to the newsletter and we wish her good luck in Luxembourg.
