SAFER’s Research & project day successfully completed

Mar, 11 2021

Over 70 partners gathered in our Team’s meeting on March 9 to listen to our project presentations during SAFER's Research & Project day. The purpose of the day was to spread knowledge about some of our projects that were ongoing in 2020. The activity was carried out as part of SAFER's Annual shareholders meeting. In the afternoon, nine different projects from our four Research areas were presented.


“Research at SAFER spans a broad base, covering several disciplines and encompassing both safe mobility and vehicle safety in real environments, it is positive to see that our projects contribute with important knowledge and that the interest for our research is significant”, says Magnus Granström, SAFER’s director.
