The agenda for SAFER’s spring Thursday lunch seminars is here! 

Dec, 05 2024

Get ready for an inspiring spring! SAFER’s partners are warmly invited to join us every Thursday at 11:30 at our co-creation office at Lindholmen Science Park for a networking lunch – a great opportunity to connect, exchange ideas, and strengthen collaborations with peers.

From 12:00 to 12:45, we will dive into an engaging seminar, offering insights into important topics related to traffic safety, sparking inspiration, and possibly giving rise to new ideas and project proposals. As always, co-creation and knowledge sharing are at the heart of SAFER’s collaborative platform!

To join us on-site for lunch, please register no later than lunchtime the day before. Prefer to join remotely? No problem – just click the link and connect, no registration required.

Below, you find our preliminary agenda, and we couldn’t be prouder of our lineup!

We look forward to seeing you and creating an exciting spring together!
