Dear Juanjo and all, I would like to make sure that we split the two following issues: 1) The general discussion about branding; 2) The specific logistics around the Smart City Expo. My purpose is to discuss in this message only issue #2; issue #1 is under the responsibility of Maurizio (within XIFI). What we agreed with Nuria last week in Vilnius concerning the Expo is the following: considering the tight time frame and the fact that we in XIFI have already prepared specific material for this Expo and ordered specific material in addition to our stand (see below and attached), we will take our place in the FI-WARE stand, share PR material with you (leaflets + posters) and welcome FI-WARE materiel so that the stand looks like one. We will have our "XIFI corner" with the large screen and the posters. In our material FI-LAB is explicitly mentioned already. We will show on the 42" screen the following: a specific XIFI video targeting smart cities; a generic presentation; and the XiPi demo whenever relevant -please note that FI-LAB is now included in XiPi (it will become visible this week). We can of course show also FI-WARE/FI-LAB video(s) and presentations if needed, and we can provide you with our video material if you have other large screens available. The next thing is to know *who is in charge of the stand*, for the last logistics issue. *Please send us asap the contact coordinates* (is it someone from Ogilvy?). We need the following in particular: - What is the booth location and number -we need this to go there and also to advertise this week. - We need to discuss the arrangements on the stand to make sure where we set up everything. - We need the 10 exhibition passes (see XIFI list of participants below). Thank you in advance and best regards, Jacques === *XIFI participants:* Monique Calisti; Miguel Alarcón; Giulia Pastor; Eduard Escalona; Roberto Gavazzi; Jose Gonzalez; Joan A.
