This is exactly what International Board was doing previous month along with a lot of work as well! During October, we had a lot of work to do starting from EU grant which was announced in September and we were working a lot on this and preparing everything to submit it next month. We had the EU BOM in Novi Sad, where we had the chance to work intensively in application, finalise texts and gather all of them in a consistent document! We would like to thank LC Novi Sad for being such great hosts and providing a great atmosphere for us to work! Meanwhile, we would like to thank Giannis Ntousakis (LC Athens) for representing EESTEC International in Autumn Meeting! Additionally, in September preparations of ECM were a lot more intense in order to ensure the best for all participants coming there, as well as for EESTEC progress. While ECM 2011 is approaching we can only promise one thing: This ECM is going to be unique and set very high standards for next EESTEC events. Ready? Not being limited to just 2 projects, during previous month, we worked a lot in other projects as well, bringing fresh ideas and projects in EESTEC! One of them is Android Competition, a competition organised for first time in EESTEC! Android is a rapidly developing and spreading technology and being aware of the abilities of our members, we decided to organise this competition! We want to encourage all of you to get involved ;) Apart form the above, this month was a great month, since a very big and promising project started :D This is mentoring project, and Int. Board has been working on that since SuBOM! Idea is to transfer knowledge among EESTECers easier and help younger (J)LC members of the network to take advantage of some technical knowledge we already have in other LC’s. Even if this month, was hard-working, November will be even more hard-working for Int. Board as well as for several of our project teams, and most significantly the month that we will have ECM ;) See you in Eskisehir! Greetings, Int.
