On Monday 17 November, a one-day event on the topic of Smart Cities will be held at the University of Groningen for PhDs, postdocs and researchers from the U4 partners.

The meeting is a side event of the Energy Convention 2014, to be held on 18 and 19 November (Martiniplaza). The Energy Convention brings together 1000 participants from research, business and government. This year, the main topics of the conference are Smart Cities and Innovation.

The aim of the meeting is to provide an interdisciplinary forum for discussing research on Smart Cities and to explore the possibilities for collaboration and common research efforts. The meeting will be the opportunity for PhDs and Postdocs to present their project and to receive feedback from respondents (other PhDs and senior researchers).
