For the project, the lateness to get the Subsidy Contract from the BSR Interreg secretariat caused problems for some partners. They couldn´t start up their local project.
Among others the Finnish partner who had an important role, to develop the common i-COIN platform couldn´t start up their work. The late start in Finland caused some serious lateness, which made it very stressed in the end of the project.
Another problem that showed up just before the first summer was that the local partnership for the Danish partner didn´t work out with the result that nobody could put together the first joint questionnaires and no one could coordinate the work package 1, which should be the base for the demands for the platform.
We as lead partner had to find quick solutions so the slow start didn´t totally make a halt. We had to take over the responsibility for coordinating WP 1 and find resources for working in the project.

Disrespect from keeping deadlines and not deliver agreed material among partners have made the role for lead partner sometimes rather tough, but always at the end everything have fall to the right places (sometimes at the absolute last second).
