We had the pleasure of visiting EMERGE partner Université Bretagne Sud (UBS) from 10 to 12 June.

Thanks to a generous host who organised a rich and well-structured programme, we also had time to wander around the campus and the towns of Lorient and Vannes.

It turned out to be a remarkably strong professional, comparative and personal match, resulting in several promising emergency preparedness projects that we are now launching and will continue to develop in the coming years, including physical meeting points at INN and UBS.

The scope ranges from health to cyber and drones, from research to education. To be continued.
