[Fiware-coaches] URGENT: meeting on tomorrow afternoon at 14:30

[franck.le-gall at eglobalmark.com]

Hello

I will be at IoT week tomorrow and thus not able to connect.

However, chaing acuel use of Fiware in my accelerators is part of my eegukar activities.

Results are sometime hard:
- One SME has been asked to leave the FIC3  program
- The FICHE one has regular evaluations and selections which helP to filter SMES.

Kind regards
Franck

dear all,

last thursday and friday in paris there was the a16 meeting.

at the moment, as also reported by some of you, there are doubts on the
real effectiveness of fiware adoption by the projects selected by the
various accelerators.

so, as fiware we (actually juanjo who was our representative there, but
fully supported by me as i was attending the xifi review) proposed there to
have fiware experts to evaluate the real and above all correct adoption of
fiware by the various projects.
this aspect is exteremely important for us as the success of the whole
fiware initiative depends on the degree how and how much fiware
technologies are used and accepted by the developers.

this work really need to be promptly started to avoid wrong directions to
be taken by the projects and above all the missuse, if not waste, of public
money.
of course the only persons whoi can really manage this process are the
fiware accelerators ... who else my friends ;-)

the idea of the meeting of tomorrow is to start and eventually already
agree on a process to be adopted to perform such task.

please note that for the same a16 meeting i have posted on basecamp (where
all the accelerators are present with more than a person) an update version
of the "fiware accelerator projects statistics" (
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1jeF3Xy7I_6MdQE1OaFII0HGH1CUU44S7B-tAqvR4Vqw/edit#gid=0)
which all of you already well know as we talked about its importance
several times.
this new version has:
- first of all a page for each accelerator as this was not the case before
- for each page new columns where to add the use of ge for each selected
project (this data must be assessed/entered by you!!!)
- new rooms for overall statistics for the second wave of calls. please
note that data for the first wave are still incomplete

the spreadsheet is only the final, yet important, step of the work we need
to do, as more importantly is the real fiware use that we have to assess.
a goal for tomorrow for instance os to agree which instrument to support
the assessment of such use, perhaps the questionnaire i have
alreadydisitributed months ago could be the tool.

i apologise if this email arrive so late today, but things sometimes evolve
very fast, even too fast, so i hope to meet the majority of you tomorrow
afternoon, it is really important!

we will talk through the usual powwownow with code 436393.

ciao,
stefano
