October 2022 saw the first time that our monthly RIS Office Day took place outside of Vienna. TU Graz hosted the collaborative event on Tuesday, October 25. The Research & Technology House made its premises available for this purpose. We also used the RIS Office in Graz to strengthen our network beyond the RIS Synergy consortium by exchanging ideas and expertise with colleagues from the University of Graz (not part of the consortium).

In the morning, we exchanged common experiences on a wide variety of agendas, and shared new and current information. The following Greek lunch was a good basis for discussion, leading to developing new points of view and ideas for the research portal concept study in the afternoon. For example, we considered how to carry out the survey and interviews. All participants saw their views and experiences incorporated.
