[Fiware-collaboration-req] Collaboration - fiware

[Andres Upegui]

Dear fiware team,

I'm Andres Upegui, professor at the University of applied sciences of 
Western Switzerland (HES-SO). In our university we have a research 
programme called iNUIT which aims to forge closer links with industry to 
place technologies based on the Internet of Things at the service of 
companies 
(http://www.hes-so.ch/data/documents/Brochure-iNuit-web-en-6518.pdf). 
The programme includes several projects which address different issues 
related to IoT ranging from devices design, wireless infrastructure, 
cloud, security, data mining to different type of applications.

I'm contacting you for two reasons:

- In our next call for projects we would like to impose fiware as the 
implementation platform, in order to permit a better integration among 
the different projects in the future.  We would therefore like to seek a 
collaboration with the FIWARE community.

- We are also co-organizing the IoT-week 2017 (http://iot-week.eu/) 
which includes a Hackathon. We would like to propose the fiware platform 
among with some hardware devices in order to propose IoT solutions for 
application in the domain of sustainable development. We would like to 
invite you to join us for co-organizing this activity.

Thanks in advance for your time and your attention,

Best regards,

Andres Upegui
