"Last week, I visited WindEnergy Hamburg, and one of my first stops was the Controllab stand. It was great to catch up with Paul, whom I had the chance to work with during my secondment at Controllab over the winter.

I also got to try their offshore crane simulator." by ModConFlex researcher Kaja.
Kaja with Paul at the Controllab Stand. There is three pane digital image of the floating crane behind them and they are framed by a chair with controls and a desk with some info. Both are facing each other and the camera at the same time, looking like they are enjoying WindEurope and their meeting. There is also an image of the EU flag in front of the picture with the text "Funded by the European Union" #EUhorizon #MSCA
