All the MEDINA partners have participated in the  8th General Assembly on 1 and 2 March 2023. The two days duration meeting was organized by Fabasoft  and took place in Linz, inside one of the buildings of the Tabakfabrik Linz site. Those participants that could not travel, followed the GA online, through the Teams session organized for that purpose.
