MyNewGut's consultation boards ensure active involvement of key stakeholders and scientific experts, serving as a discussion platform to consult in different aspects of the project as well as a dissemination resource.
The User Advisory Board and the Innovation Task Force were engaged throughout the project in a strategic manner to ensure that relevant input was considered in the development of new, innovative products (Strategy for Stakeholder Engagement). Amongst others the views of both users and industry participants were considered for specific details as well as for broader considerations on the project:
