-<u>On typologies</u>, we need to make an overview of the different approaches that have come up with this typology work. We could do it based on recommendations from the review about how they are being used. Let's make an overview of these typologies and make recommendations.
+<u>On typologies</u>,<br/>
 One group coordinated by Peter Thorne could discuss this - with the following members: Jeroen, Jens, Per and Carlo.
 <u>Innovation systems</u>: the teams should continue doing their good work. Some teams have established IPs, some have not, some of the multi-stakeholder platforms are components of a systems approach or not. Let's continue and move forward.

 <u>Other issues</u>? There's a need to organise a science seminar or symposium, focusing on researchers, and have AR research teams to synthesize and publicize the work to a wider audience.
