QAP Status and Planning Meeting for Year 3: Consortium members only (September 2008)

The QAP Status and Planning Annual Meeting this year is to be held in London. 

We plan to organise a dinner at the Noura Belgravia restaurant on 25 September 2008 at 7pm. The meeting will be held on the next day (26 September) at the Institute for Mathematical Sciences, Imperial College London.

The agenda is attached here.

The purpose of the meeting is to review status and project progress over the past year as a preparation for the annual report, and to set the workpackage deliverables and milestones, as well as budgets, for the next period. There will be presentations from the SP leaders. 

We hope that all partners will be represented at the meeting. Please send Kamna an email at your earliest convenience to confirm the number of people from your group attending the meeting and dinner.
