Dear Juanjo and coaches, I started receiving requests from my accelerators regarding the evaluation of SMEs for the success stories. It seems the process followed is slightly different than what we discussed in the assessment survey telcos. With the assessment survey, we planned to evaluate all SMEs. Accelerators on the other hand seem to expect us to evaluate only the SMEs that are shortlisted in terms of business potential. I am attaching here the guidelines I found in the basecamp regarding the process accelerators are following and the template they have asked me to fill in for their shortlisted SMEs. Could you kindly clarify what is the exact expectation from the coaches regarding this? Do we really need to evaluate all SEs or just the short listed one? We need to know this in order to avoid duplicating work. Thanks in advance & kind regards, ilknur From: Bogdan.CEOBANU at ec.europa.eu<mailto:Bogdan.CEOBANU at ec.europa.eu> [mailto:Bogdan.CEOBANU at ec.europa.eu] Sent: 11 August 2015 11:03 To: gmaugis at images-et-reseaux.com<mailto:gmaugis at images-et-reseaux.com>; adrian.ferrero at fundingbox.com<mailto:adrian.ferrero at fundingbox.com>; satu.vainamo at cie.fi<mailto:satu.vainamo at cie.fi>; pelsmaeker at digitalezorg.nl<mailto:pelsmaeker at digitalezorg.nl>; sjaak.wolfert at wur.nl<mailto:sjaak.wolfert at wur.nl>; isobel.fletcher at ebn.eu<mailto:isobel.fletcher at ebn.eu>; oggemein at googlemail.com<mailto:oggemein at googlemail.com>; sundmaeker at atb-bremen.de<mailto:sundmaeker at atb-bremen.de>; chatzikostas at biosense.rs<mailto:chatzikostas at biosense.rs>; Jesus.Villasante at ec.europa.eu<mailto:Jesus.Villasante at ec.europa.eu>; grete at civitta.ee<mailto:grete at civitta.ee>; riivo.anton at civitta.ee<mailto:riivo.anton at civitta.ee>; sean at frontierservices.eu<mailto:sean at frontierservices.eu>; soulfi_contact at ipn.pt<mailto:soulfi_contact at ipn.pt>; Simona.Torre at buongiorno.com<mailto:Simona.Torre at buongiorno.com>; miguelgarcia at zabala.es<mailto:miguelgarcia at zabala.es>; BRodriguez at zabala.es<mailto:BRodriguez at zabala.es>; laura.kohler at etventure.com<mailto:laura.kohler at etventure.com>; christian.luedtke at etventure.com<mailto:christian.luedtke at etventure.com>; ingrid.willems at iminds.be<mailto:ingrid.willems at iminds.be>; BROECHLER Raimund; fbujan at carsa.es<mailto:fbujan at carsa.es>; Ragnar.Bergstrom at ec.europa.eu<mailto:Ragnar.Bergstrom at ec.europa.eu>; Peter.Fatelnig at ec.europa.eu<mailto:Peter.Fatelnig at ec.europa.eu>; Arian.ZWEGERS at ec.europa.eu<mailto:Arian.ZWEGERS at ec.europa.eu>; Maria-Concepcion.ANTON-GARCIA at ec.europa.eu<mailto:Maria-Concepcion.ANTON-GARCIA at ec.europa.eu>; isobel.fletcher at ebn.eu<mailto:isobel.fletcher at ebn.eu>; sean at frontierservices.eu<mailto:sean at frontierservices.eu>; miguelangel.comin at econet-consultants.com<mailto:miguelangel.comin at econet-consultants.com>; satu.vainamo at gmail.com<mailto:satu.vainamo at gmail.com>; bert.vermeer at wur.nl<mailto:bert.vermeer at wur.nl>; slourenco at ipn.pt<mailto:slourenco at ipn.pt>; krijn.poppe at wur.nl<mailto:krijn.poppe at wur.nl>; alex at peacefulfish.com<mailto:alex at peacefulfish.com>; ilkka.lakaniemi at aalto.fi<mailto:ilkka.lakaniemi at aalto.fi>; pentti.launonen at aalto.fi<mailto:pentti.launonen at aalto.fi>; susanne.kuehrer at skinterconsulting.eu<mailto:susanne.kuehrer at skinterconsulting.eu>; Cristian.OLIMID at ec.europa.eu<mailto:Cristian.OLIMID at ec.europa.eu>; belen.manchego at buongiorno.com<mailto:belen.manchego at buongiorno.com>; angeles.tejado at ogilvy.com<mailto:angeles.tejado at ogilvy.com>; pablo.honrubia at ogilvy.com<mailto:pablo.honrubia at ogilvy.com>; javier.garrido at enel.com<mailto:javier.garrido at enel.com>; sellares.gerard at gmail.com<mailto:sellares.gerard at gmail.com>; bernardita at frontierservices.eu<mailto:bernardita at frontierservices.eu>; Vanessa.VANHUMBEECK at ec.europa.eu<mailto:Vanessa.VANHUMBEECK at ec.europa.eu> Subject: RE: A16 FIWARE Accelerator Telco Monday 10 August 14:00 CET Dear Coordinators, Greatly appreciated for the commitment and energy that you have invested within this program. The first results are promising and together we can bring more value to the accelerator! Thanks to representatives from FIAdopt, Insense, FIC3, SoulFi, FICHE, FrontierCities, Creatifi, EuropeanPioneers - Sussane,Xavier, Satu, RaImund, Bernadita, Johnny and Laura for joining todays call. Topics discussed: 1. Business and technical aspects a. In order to prepare the communication campaign please prepare your answers for the section 1 and 2 regarding the best performing companies – in the appraisal form by 17 August: https://basecamp.com/2125738/projects/6480330/messages/45492831 The form will be submitted to the technical coach who will fill in the section 3 on the technical aspects. This analysis will be done as follow-up of the workshop in Paris and different types stories (videos, infographics, blogs, etc) will be made for the companies that showcase best business results & technological performance. Keep in mind that stories will be generated through the following 12 months so if any of you company encounter a major milestone (ie: get follow-up investment, sign a major partnership, reaches 100k downloads or similar, etc you might share this later with Ogilvy ). b. Juanjo (FICORE) will share with all the companies the following survey also to know how the companies are using the enablers: https://basecamp.com/2125738/projects/6480330/messages/45686754 This information collected by FICORE will be shared with the A16 and the EC in a "non-disclosure outside the programme" principle. The names of individual subgrantees will be anonymised. 2. Community Building Action Plan This planning was designed to increase the success level of the 770 companies in the program. It is based on concrete figures at vertical / geography level (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/6rm5klz48e48jed/AACfIA5yBO4g-dONoDMA3yI1a?dl=0) and builds on a set of best practices (https://basecamp.com/2125738/projects/6480330/messages/45239986) showcased within respected accelerators. The focus within the next 12 months will fall under the following aspects based on the geography/vertical aspects: - editorial (building on success stories) - online community (slack/basecamp – all 770 founders will invited ) - events (to bring additional value added to the companies in 3 ways: connections, education, marketing ) We should use at maximum the power of the network, the connections we have to increase the chances of success of the selected companies. This will raise the bar in terms of value added to the companies and will bring much more respect and reputation to your accelerator. In the next 12 months the companies you selected will be catapulted in the market in a very organic and systematic way, and we need your support for this. Each accelerator will lead events at vertical and geography level. In total there will be more than 45 of them. The draft planning at verticals/geography level (check the 3 tabs): https://www.dropbox.com/s/a53e5f5wirefu4m/2.communty-events.xlsx?dl=0 Next steps would be that leaders on verticals/geographies setup a skype/call and start preparing a plan of activities, including responsibilities, first events and ways how to bring as much value as possible to the participants. Results to be shared in Basecamp by the end of August. Practical examples of events: include facilitating meetings to key customers, access to the leading players in the industry, meetings with the key startup players in a particular geography, having vc's pitching to the startups, or teaching them about how to bring the companies to the next level. We will have a new phone call on 7 September (14:00) to discuss the evolution of these plans. For any questions don't hesitate to send us an email.
