[FIWARE-ihubs-committee] URGENT: reviewers owning FIWARE expertise for evaluation of smart manufacturing open call

[Francisco Melendez]

Dear All,

Thank you all for volunteering personally or connecting with colleagues in
your team to form a great group of potential reviewers for the DIH²
experiment proposals. As I mentioned in an earlier email, the DIH² team in
charge of coordinating the Open Call will contact you shortly. They will
provide you with detailed information and you can decide at that time
whether or not you are interested in finally participating in the review
process.

Thanks again for your time.
Best Regards,
