dear juanjo and all,

sorry for this late reply, but i'm catching-up emails only over the nigth
the free time that i have from other obligations ....

btw, although i understand the carefulness of pier the sentence juanjo is
proposing put on our shoulder somehow the fact we are making difficulties
in the organisation of the event.

as nuria correctly say we are NOT in the OC so the failure of the vent is
their failure .... my position is that we should suggest them to cancel the
event for many reasons but in a firm way. my senetnce therefore is:

"We believe that an event of startegical importance like the ECFI should
and have to be has to be organised very well in advance. At this point the
event has no clear and agreed message to convey nor atrget audience (what
and for whom), is late in dissemination (an event like this should be
announced a year before), and does not have yet a clear agenda and named
invited speakers (all of this should be know about 6 months in advance).
Under the above outlined circumstances we wonder whether it would be better
to cancel the event.
We will be happy to cooperate and being involved in:
a) looking for other dates, the current dates just before the elections
will not assure the rigth political attendance and attention both at mp and
commission levels
b) designin and event which doesn't require to ask for a high fee to
attendees
c) well activating the network of contacts of phase 3 projects whioch in
turn looks like a good rationale you can give to people who had already
registered."

ciao,
stefano

> connected to FI-WARE as well as some of the winners of the hackathons (for
> example from the last edition of Campus Party held in Brazil). Of course
> names will be confirmed once the session is approved and assuming the do
> not have to pay the fee (I also sent it to the DWG for consideration by the
> OC) • FI-WARE has also confirmed its presence in the exhibition (still
> details to be sent)
>

>
> It was not easy to confirm this because, as you know, we were working
> until recently on the basis of the session with the Chamber of Commerce.

> Assuming that these changes are implemented in the programme then, we
> could get more engaged in the design and visibility of the event. As said
> before, FI-WARE can provide suggestions for improvement, but if more time
> intensive work is needed, then we would need to cover the costs of Ogilvy.
> This would be specifically required for this type of activities:
>
> - new designs of flyer, stands, ...
>
> - Material production (for example, if online development is required..)
>
> - Coverage of the event if we want to create professional media material
> (and a team from Ogilvy has to travel there). We did this in ICT event,
> Smart City Expo, Campus Party London and Campus Party Brazil with very good
> results
>
>
>
> The remaining budget has been assigned to the next Campus party, some
> important political events in Spain and the one we have to organize with
> the Chambers of Commerce. We are in discussions with FI-CONTENT on how to
> do it for CeBIT precisely because of limited resources.

>
> However, FI-WARE puts at the disposal of anyone in the PPP all the
> material already created. Links to videos have been distributed and I do
> not think there is anything against using them on the ECFI website to make
> it more dynamic, including statements about the FI PPP from relevant people.
