🇩🇰 IRE Grant Assembly — Copenhagen, April 2026

🇩🇰 Back from Copenhagen after two energising days at the IRE Grant Assembly — and what a meeting it was.

The IRE — Intelligent Robotic Endoscopes for Improved Healthcare Services consortium gathered on April 16 and 17 for its latest grant assembly, and it was a great reminder of just how far this project has come. The consortium feels stronger and more connected than ever — a real testament to the work everyone has put in since the project kicked off.

The programme was packed: scientific talks and progress updates from each partner, insightful workshop sessions to align on next steps, and plenty of moments to exchange ideas sharing some coffee and pastries. These face-to-face meetings are irreplaceable — they always spark conversations that no video call can replicate.

🍒 And the cherries on top? Copenhagen treated us to splendid spring sunshine, and the view from the top of the Maersk Tower was simply breath-taking — a sweeping panorama over the city that made for a memorable backdrop to the whole event.

🙏 Thank you to Thomas, Olga and Kenny for hosting such a smooth and productive assembly, and to all IRE partners for the energy and commitment they bring to every meeting. Looking forward to the next one!
