Around 500 people had attended the event, which also features online presentation materials for those who cannot be there in person. All streams are available live and will be made available in archive form immediately after the session.

The closing plenary will be delivered by Ingrid Melve, who leads the eCampus Norway project. In addition to four more plenary talks, each day will include parallel sessions of presentations on a diverse range of topics.
