COMMECT was represented by Per Jonny Nesse at the 30th ICE IEEE Conference in June 2024 where he presented two papers.

Souhaima STIRI presented "Multiple Connectivity Solutions to enable Digital Applications for Viticulture" which highlights the living lab in Luxembourg.

The Synergy Days Conference 2023 took place in Thessaloniki, Greece, on 4 and 5 October 2023, and was a great opportunity for the COMMECT project to connect with other EU-funded projects and create synergies with them.

The ETSI IoT Conference 2023, which took place on 4-6 July 2023 in Sophia Antipolis (France), is a must-attend event gathering IoT experts to discuss standard-enabled technologies, IoT service deployments, and future standardization work.

The conference covers topics such as the role of IoT in digital and green transformation, advanced IoT technologies, and horizontal IoT standards for various sectors.

DunavNET CEO, Srdjan Krčo, presented the COMMECT project activities in his session titled ‘COMMECT: Building Digital Bridges for Rural Areas’.

Srdjan discussed how to bridge the digital divide in rural regions by providing reliable and secure access to everyone, regardless of location.

This morning the EU event titled “Strengthening digital skills of rural people to benefit from the digital era” saw the participation of Maria Rita Palattella from Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology (LIST).

The COMMECT coordinator was invited to participate on a panel discussion with practitioners and experts on the main ingredients for successful initiatives regarding the implementation of digital skills in rural areas.

The title of the panel was “Learning from inspirational projects and practices” and, in this context, Maria Rita Palattella had the possibility to share COMMECT experience on the need of building synergies between different approaches to enhance ICT infrastructure and digital skills.

Ljupco Jorguseski (TNO) represented COMMECT at EUCNC 2023 Summit in Gothenburg (Sweden), i.e., one of the most exciting arenas for global dialogue and collaboration to develop mobile communications standards.

In particular, the COMMECT partner presented a poster about connnectivity solutions in rural areas for livestock transport.

One of the take-away message of the EU AgriResearch Conference was the importance of Living Labs to co-create together with farmers, foresters, and rural communities innovative and impactful solutions, tailored to their needs.

COMMECT adopts such an approach and is deploying 5 Living Labs across and outside Europe.

The COMMECT coordinator Maria Rita Palattella was there to disseminate the insights collected from the close exchange with end-users and stakeholders.

Our partners were proud to share the progress of two impactful projects such as COMMECT and H2020 DEMETER with the fair's attendees. The DunavNET's team of experts answered questions, offered demonstrations, and engaged in meaningful discussions about how these projects are shaping the future of farming and the agricultural sector by means of innovation and forefront solutions.

The XX. Colloquium of the International Working Group for Soil Management and Quality Management in Viticulture took place in Luxembourg from 10 to 13 May 2023.

Members of academia, policymakers and practitioners are discussing key topics of viticulture, exchanging on research approaches, and best practices.
Miriam Machwitz from Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology (LIST) and Mario Gilcher from Luxsense presented COMMECT activities  through talks and poster presentation.

At the 27th IEEE Conference on Information Technology IT 2023, Dr Srdjan Krčo, CEO of  DunavNET, presented the COMMECT project.
