Welcome to the ACT Knowledge Sharing Workshop 16-17 November 2020

The ACT consortium will organise the 5th annual ACT Knowledge Sharing Workshop as a virtual meeting 16-17 November 2020. The aim is to ensure fruitful knowledge sharing and increase collaboration between the ACT funded projects and other CCUS initiatives. 

The workshop will highlight ongoing projects from the second ACT call. Projects from the first ACT call will finalise by the end of 2020 and key messages will be highlighted at a separate workshop early 2021.  

You can sign up for the workshop by entering your contact details at this registration form.
