[Fiware-comms] nota de prensa Retos

[Margarita Tremblay]

Hola Iris,

He recibido el dossie con el inglés corregido, pero no la nota de prensa.
¿Podrías enviárnosla también? O quizás estás esperando a que nuestra Call
sobre temas de comunicación.

Por enviarte una referencia: la nota de prensa en inglés que ha lanzado la
Comisión Europea podría retocarse y acomodarse a nuestros intereses de
comunicación (las pautas que dioJuanjo sobre dejar de hablar de proyecto,
remarcar su carácter internacional etc)

Explica muy brevemente y muy claramente qué es todo sin necesidad de
consultar un dossier aparte, y mediante links aporta más información de
valor para periodistas.

Aquí va:

Winners first stage FI-WARE contests selected

40 teams are invited to attend Campus Party Brazil and will compete for
prizes and glory.
<https://www.fi-ware.eu/challenges/>

The FI-WARE project <http://www.fi-ware.eu/> and Campus
Party<http://www.campus-party.eu/2013/about-cp.html> have
launched a series of contests, which together will distribute more than
800,000 Euros in prizes. A first
contest<https://ec.europa.eu/digital-agenda/en/news/fi-ware-hackathon-campus-party-2013-europe>
was
held in September 2013 during Campus Party 2013 Europe in London, where
FI-WARE challenged Campuseros to build applications on
FI-Lab<http://www.slideshare.net/FI-WARE/filab-for-smart>,
a live instance of the FI-WARE technologies available to developers for
free experimentation with the technology. The potential of the FI-WARE
technologies for smart cities has recently been demonstrated at
Santander<http://ec.europa.eu/digital-agenda/en/news/santander-displays-fi-ware%E2%80%99s-potential-smart-cities>
(see
also the video <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KpaMz0rTeGM>).

*Two new contests <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I6b-FXk4F5Y>* are
currently open, and they focus on:

   - Smart Cities<http://www.campus-labs.com/webapp/reto/ver/FIWARe800k?lang=en>
   - Smart Business &
Industry<http://www.campus-labs.com/webapp/reto/ver/FIWARE800k?lang=en>

Both contests will each hand out 200,000 Euro in prizes. This will happen
in two phases:

   - In the first phase, contestants need to send in their ideas. Having a
   proof of concept deployed in FI-LAB will increase the chances. On 20
   December 2013, the first phase ended. 20 proposals are now selected and
   will go to the second phase. Each of the 20 proposals receives 2,800 Euro
   to enter the second phase of the challenge and to attend Campus Party
   Brazil 2014, where the second phase will take place.
   - During Campus Party
Brazil<http://www.campus-party.com.br/2014/index.html> in
   Sao Paulo (27 January - 2 February 2014), the selected teams will further
   work on their prototypes and will make a public demonstration of their
   results. A total of 145,000 Euro will be distributed among the winners of
   the second phase.

The list of 2 x 20 proposals selected can be found
here<http://www.fi-ware.eu/2014/01/09/selected-teams-fi-ware-challenges/>
.

More challenges will be launched this year.
