From August 20th to August 22nd, ICCLab went to a summer retreat in\u00a0Grafenhausen, into\u00a0the Black Forest, Germany.<\/p>\n

The objective of the retreat was to define the current status of our research Themes and Initiatives and expose\u00a0the planned work for the year to come. With so many new team members that joined us in the last months and the\u00a0impressive growth rate of our lab, it was necessary to define ways to keep our work organized and efficient and respect the principles of our approach to research<\/a>. Besides the hard work… well… certainly when twenty young people spend three days and *two nights*\u00a0together, a great deal of fun is\u00a0also to be expected!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We had some intense sessions of hard work, with talks, brainstorms, presentations and feedbacks. Everyone from the ICCLab was attending and, favored by the quietness and isolation of our location, we could dive deeply into our discussions and fruitfully move from one topic to the other.<\/p>\n

Here is a moment during our meetings…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"2014-08-20<\/a><\/p>\n

… and during a break:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

… over dinner …<\/p>\n

\"2014-08-20<\/p>\n

We took the opportunity to explore the black forest with a long hike and we also\u00a0visited the nearby\u00a0Rothaus beer factory:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We had a lot of fun playing bowling in the hotel alley!\u00a0A honorable mention goes to Konstantin and Christof, who went\u00a0on periodic\u00a0strike\u00a0sprees, raising the bar of the competition.\u00a0Here’s Vincenzo dealing with a poor throw!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Conclusions<\/h1>\n

To meet with all the members of the ICCLab, sit down,\u00a0discuss about our work and\u00a0make\u00a0sure our activities are\u00a0perfectly tuned with our objectives and targets, proved to be a very important opportunity and a proficient exercise.<\/p>\n

As the group has grown significantly, we need to put more effort into managing our own internal structures and keep\u00a0the organization of our research very efficient. A significant discussion point regarded our research themes, for which we realized that more effort is needed to make sure\u00a0these structures are working as intended.<\/p>\n

The importance of having well-defined roadmaps\u00a0was highlighted\u00a0and, for each initiative, a detailed work breakdown has been presented. This information will be\u00a0maintained during the evolution\u00a0of our works and will always remain\u00a0available to the entire group as a clear statement\u00a0of the targets to be achieved.<\/p>\n

Looking forward to the next event! Greetings from the ICCLab team<\/p>\n
