After successful completion of the first year's activities, MATURE is now in the middle of the exciting developments of the second year: We are moving from exploration of potential approaches to supporting knowledge maturing towards demonstrating their value in first prototypes. On the empirical strand, we are continuing our efforts to deepen our understanding of knowledge maturing and the real-world problems, but we are also here moving from a purely exploratory approach towards a combined exploratory and confirmatory approach with over 200 hundred structured interviews.

In this newsletter, we give you a brief introduction to some of the activities. We invite you to get in contact with us if you want to know more about it, or want to get involved as application partner for one of the demonstrators (see also http://mature-ip.eu/demonstrators), or want to participate in the interviews.
