The DesCartes team, together with Her Excellency Mrs the Ambassor of France to Singapore Minh-Di Tang, DesCartes partners and other prestigious guests, 14 October 2022.  

Last month marked the first anniversary of the DesCartes Program (a CNRS@CREATE program initiated in large part by IPAL and now involving several researchers from the lab) ! For the occasion, a week full of events was organised from October 10 to 15.

The first three days were dedicated to the students involved in the project: with classes, workshops and activities on all three pillars of the program (ie: Intelligent Comuting; Empowering people in smart cities; Engineering and builder) as well as some informal events.

The Friday (October 14) was also dedicated to the One Year anniversary of the program.

On the agenda: presentations by the different work packages, video presentations of the builders as well as a cocktail event gathering all the researchers, students, academic & industrial partners as well as the French Embassy.
