Hi, all, I also like the idea, a friend of mine works for the EU, he is working on smart city projects which also have quite a bit in common with Industry 4.0. Should I contact him and ask him if he has some ideas how a project like PLC4X might be supported by the EU? Another idea might be to contact universities. While organizing the talk of Chris at EuregJUG Maas-Rhine we got some contacts to RWTH Aachen. What do you think?
