At the annual meeting of the pan-European Ocean Tribology network at the University of Zagreb, representatives of all working groups presented their achievements and activities from the past year. The meeting provided an excellent opportunity to discuss plans for the coming year while also initiating preparations for 2028.

A total of 21 participants from 13 European countries took part in the networking activities, which included fruitful discussions and a guided tour of the beautiful city of Zagreb.

We also had the opportunity to present the project’s key results and future outlook at the residence of H.E. Mr. William De Baets, Ambassador of the Kingdom of Belgium. We are grateful for his warm hospitality and for hosting this valuable exchange of ideas and achievements.
