On April 20, 2017, the kick-off meeting for the project “Civitas Digitalis – Digital and Crowd-based Service Systems for the Establishment of Sustainable and Livable Living Environment 2020” took place in Kassel. The project managers and employees of all 5 subprojects as well as Dr. Große from the project partner KIT met in the scientific center for information technology design to an intensive acquaintance and content exchange.

In addition to a shared understanding of the project objectives and profiles of the individual partners, the first findings from the ongoing activities have already been reported and links between Kassel and Hamburg have been identified. All parties involved appreciated the committed, interested and open discourse and are looking forward to a productive cooperation.
