The 3rd Transnational Partners’ Meeting (TPM) of the “SCALe – Smart City ASEAN Learning Network” European project was successfully held in person, on Wednesday, July 23, 2025, at the Phnom Penh International University (PPIU) in the capital city of Cambodia. It served as a coordination meeting among the project partners in the context of SCALe’s implementation, taking into account that the project’s core objective is to develop a series of micro courses focused on smart city skills, which can complement or enhance existing academic programs, or even be combined to create entirely new ones.
The DAISSy Research Group of the Hellenic Open University (HOU), the Greek partner of SCALe, was represented at the 3rd TPM by Professor Achilles Kameas, Director of DAISSy and Scientific Coordinator of the project, and Dr. Theodoros Panagiotakopoulos, Project Manager at DAISSy and SCALe Manager. They both participated actively in all TPM sessions, contributed updates on the deliverables under the Research Group’s responsibility, taking into account its multidimensional role within SCALe, and also expressed suggestions and recommendations regarding the next steps of the project’s implementation. In parallel, DAISSy-HOU fully seized the opportunity to develop new collaborations with Universities in Southeast Asia, initiating a series of meetings on the sidelines of the SCALe project events – it offered commemorative gifts and expressed its gratitude to the representatives of the local Universities.
