EC Research Retreat in Ohrid

05/25/2024

Reflection on projects, plans, and topics

From 21st of May to the 25th, the Chair of Enterprise Computing was off-site in Ohrid, North Macedonia, for its annual research retreat and spent three and a half days discussing the current projects D-AI-Y and proDTM, doctoral and research projects of the academic staff, and research topics, systematizing them for further research at the Chair and transferring them into a roadmap.

The week was rounded off with a quad bike tour, which once again showed us that we only get a great view and new insights when we leave the paved road and venture into unpaved terrain.

If we were slower than usual this week, it was because we were constantly thinking in our little room there. We apologize for this.
