Dissemination and exploitation plan

This document will describe the approaches and strategies to both dissemination and subsequent exploitation of the results. The dissemination plan will describe how the consortium is going to target different audiences in order to promote the project and its results, from academic groups to industry and wider general audience. This will be done considering different means (seminars, publications, website, press releases etc.) The exploitation plan will describe the strategies and steps to create further academic research as well as technological deployment of the results, e.g., via the potential founding of start ups/spin off and/or the interaction and involvement with the industrial sector.
