Advanced advertising and getting prepared for TIBE

One of the main or at least most visible outcome of IRIS project is TIBE (Tanzanian Innovation and Business event) event organized in spring 2019 in Tanzania. TIBE aims to showcase all the activities, learning outcomes and experiences that have been carried out in IRIS project. The main organizers of TIBE event are IRIS team members and students.

IRIS team made great plans for TIBE event during the IRIS Turku Intensive week. One of the ultimate goals of the event is to activate visitors to involve all the activities organized in the stand. Planned activities in TIBE event includes Help Desk that provides access to the information and supports active use of knowledge, poster exhibition of new, user oriented library services, showcases and videos of students projects and lot more. TIBE visitors can test applications designed by students and possibly new student projects will born as an outcome of TIBE event.

Communication between Turku and Dar es Salaam has been quite active during the past few weeks. Skype is the main communication channel and most of the time connections are working fine.

However, all the plans are proceeding and we are expecting to start advanced marketing in the beginning of 2019.
