[Fiware-acceleration-help] Advice for application to accelerator program

[Grigoris Chatzikostas]

Dear Marcel,

Thank you for your interest in the FIWARE Acceleration Programme.

Your idea is innovative indeed. If you are considering transfering this
idea to the agricultural sector, namely in shared use and maintenance of
agricultural machinery by farmers, then FRACTALS could be a very good fit
for you, since eligible solutions include (among others):   Solutions that
support novel business models in agricultural sector (i.e. resources
sharing, machinery as a service, etc.).

Colleagues from other accelerators (ie Smart Cities) could also give
comments if your idea fits to their calls.

Best Regards

> We have this great idea for a new approach to the procurement and communal

> - To which accelerator should we apply? We are aiming to develop a way to
> engage neighborhoods in the shared use and maintenance of expensive
> consumer products, like cars, lawn mowers, power tools, etc.
> - And the second one is, if you apply for funding at some accelerator,
> would you still get coaching / mentoring from the Fi-ware program?
