CE-RISE partners headed to the picturesque university town of Leiden in early June for the project’s third in-person consortium meeting.  

The first day of the meeting covered progress over the last six months and served as the perfect opportunity to discuss end-user proposals for functionality and the CE-RISE Information System’s modules and features including RE-Indicators and LCA method(s).  
 
For the evening networking, our partners “took the plunge” and discovered Leiden’s beautiful canals by boat. 
 
Wrapping up our time together, on the second day the consortium collectively focused on rehearsing and planning for the annual event taking place at Electronics Goes Green all the while contemplating solutions for different actors in the value chain that may be efficiently implemented in the project.  

Taking advantage of the interactive nature of in-person meetings, technical partners extended their stay to: 

• tackle the harmonisation of needs and guidelines in the project;  

• take a hands-on approach to actualising the CE-RISE conceptual framework;  

• accelerate the preparations for the deployment of DPP across industry partners;  

• and drill down on calculation methods for Product Environmental Footprints (PEFs) and RE/Socio Economic Environmental (SEE) impacts.  

A special thank you to Leiden University for hosting the meeting!
