Sarantaporo.gr invites you to open information events during April 2014 - discussions in the villages of Dolichi, Pythio, Flambouro and Mikro Eleutherochori on: "Sarantaporo.gr Wireless Community Networks - Modern citizen-to-citizen infrastructure”.

The aim of the event is to get acquainted with the villagers, to inform them about the activities of our team and especially the implementation of wireless internet access networks in the villages of our area, to present our proposal for further development through the EU Funded project CONFINE, as well as exchanging views and exploring ways of working together to achieve common goals.

The event is open to all residents of the villages, regardless of age and specialty and we would love to see you all there!

Last fall, when the Sarantaporo.gr team was informed that the FP7 project CONFINE announced an open call for new partners to join, in order to expand their research network, the team did not back down and filed a formal proposal on November 14, 2013. The processing of all submitted proposals took more than 3 months until the results of the evaluation were announced on 24 February 2014. Of the 63 proposals submitted in total, Sarantaporo.gr's proposal received a high rating and was accepted, along with another 7, to participate in the program and secure the required funding!

When Sarantaporo.gr was created in 2010, none of its founders could predict its course. It all started as an endeavour of a few old friends, but also with the seriousness and organization that gave a particular impetus to new things, unprecedented for Sarantaporo and the wider region.

A website about our village, a wireless internet access network, cultural events with the participation of locals, photo exhibitions-contests, a new culture of collaboration with our fellow villagers, our local village associations and the wider area. We do what we like and gives us pleasure. Sarantaporo.gr was our new identity and an opportunity for extroversion! The goals of the group: to mobilize valuable people in our area with a willingness to offer, to create a means of communication and coordination between us, to submit proposals for development and progress, to actively participate in the organization of events, the development of infrastructure and the opening of new ways that will help the local community grow and prosper.
