Audit – Concluding Remarks

The project seems to be off to a good start and has the opportunity to produce state-of-the-art results on HAP communications.

The project should carry on its technical work, but more attention on the business models validation needs to be provided.

The issue of frequency availability needs to be urgently addressed.

Matrix work on WP1 and contributions to other WPs need improving,…
