The interviewees also emphasised the relevance of in-person phases, however. They felt that online phases made sense especially at the beginning of a project (preparation, familiarisation), in between two in-person phases, or as an add-on phase at the very end. This suggests a move towards blended or hybrid formats. For the longer-term future, some interviewees said it would be good to try out other methods and forms of access (e.g., virtual reality) in combination with in-person phases. As one team leader said, “[…] I think that we’ll be seeing some pretty funky stuff, more than we can imagine right now. Think of VR headsets and things like that. We’re at the very beginning of this process and we’re still a bit hesi - tant about it. But I think that maybe in five years, for sure in ten years, we’ll be seeing more innovative approaches. Ideally, we should embrace that but never forget how important it is to get together in person.” (Team leader, one-on-one interview)
