DIGIFABS Launches First Project Bulletin: Project Management Group Leads Collaboration

The DIGIFABS consortium is proud to announce the launch of its first project bulletin, marking the start of a bi-annual digital series designed to keep stakeholders informed about the project’s activities and progress. The inaugural issue introduces DIGIFABS, its objectives, and the critical needs it seeks to address. It also includes a report from the first consortium meeting and an update on initial research. Each partner’s role will be highlighted throughout the project, with Preneurz responsible for compiling the bulletins and Momentum overseeing the design and distribution. The bulletin will reach its target audience of educators and SMEs in the food and beverage sector through distribution by each consortium partner to their networks. Find the Bulletin here: https://digifabs.eu/download/613/?tmstv=1721307197 At the core of DIGIFABS is the Project Management Group (PMG), a key decision-making body led by Dominik Lappenküpper of FH Munster, consisting of representatives from all consortium partners. The PMG meets monthly to track progress, address challenges, and plan upcoming activities. Their work has been critical in driving timely reporting, collaborative problem-solving, and ensuring deliverables are met on schedule and within budget. In the project’s early stages, the PMG has overseen the development of key strategy documents, the establishment of the DIGIFABS brand identity, and the creation of branded templates. The group has also successfully launched the project website, social media channels, and an extensive literature review, alongside building a stakeholder database. Looking ahead, the PMG is preparing to conduct field-based research with key target groups of educators and SMEs, and encourages stakeholders to subscribe to the bi-annual bulletin to stay informed about the project’s future developments.
