I do not think that 1/2 a day is enough time to present a "detailed presentation of the FIWARE offering". I suggest rewording to the more modest "overview" and/or contemplate add more time for details to follow.

Invitation letter Sent by: fiware-chapter-leaders-bounces at lists.fi-ware.org Hi again, As a follow up of the previous e-mail, let me include below the main target audience of the workshops in Washington and an invitation letter that you can copy & paste directly in case you have good contacts in USA that may be interested in it. The "FIWARE Service Workshop" is a 1/2 day meeting with service providers / organisations interested to provide services and assistance to cities in the USA around FIWARE. The FIWARE team is pleased to inform you that, following our successful participation in the Global City Teams Challenge Exhibition and Workshop on June 1st and 2nd, we are organizing a new event, again in Washington D.C., on July 15th and 16th, 2015. On Wednesday, July 15th, from 09.00am to 12.00am, we welcome city representatives, individuals and organisations working with and for cities and counties, at the ?FIWARE Cities Workshop?. The participants will have the opportunity to get a detailed presentation of the FIWARE offering, as well as examples of Smart Cities applications already deployed. They will also have the opportunity to ask questions and get answers from a team of FIWARE experts. In addition, the ?Open & Agile Smart Cities? initiative will be presented. This initiative already gathers more than 50 cities with a common goal: creating an open Smart City market based on the needs of cities and communities. Cities need interoperability and standards to boost competitiveness, as they would help avoid vendor lock-in and would allow for comparability to benchmark performance and an easy sharing of best practices. Cities also need solutions that can be implemented with respect for local practices and job creation. Joining this FIWARE-related initiative can help cities address these kinds of issues. As a participant in the ?FIWARE Cities Workshop? you will also hear how FIWARE can help your city or your county attract developers and entrepreneurs. City representatives interested in setting up a private meeting to better express their requirements and better understand how FIWARE could address them, have the opportunity to book a B2B meeting with FIWARE experts at the ?FIWARE B2B Meetings? session which will be held from 1.00pm to 4.00pm on July 15th. There, you will have the opportunity to discuss how to proceed with FIWARE and implement it in your own city, and how you could interact with or join the Open & Agile Smart Cities initiative. On Thursday, July 16th, from 09.00am to 12.00am, we welcome service providers and organisations interested in providing FIWARE services and assistance to cities in the USA, at the ?FIWARE Service Workshop?. Service providers, organisations, universities or individuals interested to provide US cities with FIWARE services and assistance will be given all the information needed to start such an activity. We welcome organisations already working with cities and also working with public authorities or companies that could benefit from FIWARE, in sectors such as transport, energy, health, manufacturing, content and multimedia, etc. Are you interested? Please register as soon as possible ? the workshops and the B2B meetings are free of charge. You may register to one of the workshops or both of them. If you are interested in the B2B meeting you may register as well separately. The number of seats is limited and we will welcome you on a first come first served basis. Thank you for your understanding. Looking forward to seeing you soon in Washington D.C.! The FIWARE Team Note: the workshops shall take place at the Delegation of the European Union to the United States of America, 2175 K Street NW, Washington, DC 20037. However, a change may still occur.
