From nuria.delama at atos.net Wed Jul 2 23:28:23 2014 From: nuria.delama at atos.net (De-Lama Sanchez, Nuria) Date: Wed, 2 Jul 2014 21:28:23 +0000 Subject: [Fiware-pcc] Urgent need for a technical speaker from FI-WARE_Hamburg 11th July Message-ID: <79C5DE4D25832A49BAACBC6E798E3FDB0D77FE@DEERLM99EX5MSX.ww931.my-it-solutions.net> Dear all, As you know, a lot of things are happening with FI-WARE now thanks to the accelerators of phase 3. Marketing and dissemination will really be intensified and this is good for our success. As part of this process the different projects (accelerators) and regions/cities are requesting FI-WARE speakers and we need to give answer to these requests. Juanjo and I attended a meeting with MS and Funding agencies yesterday in Brussels. It was an event organized by the EC with the goal of finding complementary funding sources either to contribute to new functionalities or to promote the take-up and adoption of FI-WARE. This week we also got two additional requests for speakers: * 11th June in Hamburg. An important event with SMEs and entrepreneurs; with support from accelerators --> we need for this a technical guy. Someone with good knowledge of the overall context and technical skills and experience to show in situ how to use FI-WARE GEs. This is very urgent!!! Please, all wpl send your availability (and that of people from your teams and WP that fulfill these requirements) ASAP including Juanjo in CC, since I am already on holidays and will not be online all the time. Stefano was very kind already to accept another invitation to travel to Tallin at the end of August.

Dear Juanjo, Indeed, the goals mentioned below (Startup Weekend, Brazil nodes, etc) seem very important for the success of the FI-PPP. I have two clarification questions, that might help deciding on the voting . 1. It seems that the activities are going to (or at least might) be supported by other projects, such as XIFI or FI-Core. Can you, please, elaborate how do you see the responsibilities of each project in this respect? 2. Can you, please, elaborate on the envisioned deliverables, as well as role of the different partners in activities beyond September? This might be crucial for proper effort/budget planning (and for the assessing their feasibility).

I have had the opportunity to chat with Mr. Villasante after receiving this message in order to better understand his position and come back to you. As a result of this conversation, I reached the conclusion that the EC may get actually dissapointed if we don't go for it. We at Telef?nica I+D do not have any issue with such as an extension and we believe it actually makes sense. Actually, it's true that there are a number of activities that may become difficult to execute/fund if we do not implement such an extension. Certainly regarding activities of Startup Weekend or the setup of FI-Lab nodes in Brazil but I would not get suprised if some of the partners involved with projects linked to smart cities may welcome this extension. Nevertheless, we will carry out a doodle poll to gather the position of all partners. The doodle poll is setup at: http://doodle.com/cpz43fzz2gfaeegb. If you agree or do not object, please vote 'Yes'. No vote will count as no objection (i.e. as 'Yes'). Please cast only a vote for partner. Deadline for voting is EOB this Thursday.

For example, Startup Weekend has only recently started its activities and will not be able to reach the scale of the intended audience by the end of September 2014. Startup Weekend attracts participants that are quite valuable to the FI-WARE ecosystem and efforts must be made to address them well. In addition, the FI-WARE project has recently started activities to engage with Brazilian organisations to set up FI-Lab nodes in Brazil. The Commission is very supportive to those activities and is keen in seeing them implemented well. The current FI-WARE grant agreement needs to be amended for this to guarantee proper implementation of the FI-Lab nodes in Brazil. Finally, the topic of Smart Cities is gaining in importance. The work of FI-WARE's newly added partners in this topic needs to be concluded well. All in all, I strongly suggest you to consider extending the project until (say) end of December 2014 to successfully execute the above and other activities, taking into account possible budget limitations.

Particularly, the role of FI-WARE with respect to the other mentioned projects needs to be defined in detail, to avoid potential troubles and/or superposition. Moreover, what should be the interpretation of the last sentence reported by Mr. Villasante (...'taking into account possible budget limitations'): does it mean that it is strongly suggested to extend the project, and at the same time the EC could apply a budget limitation (limitation to current budget? Limitation to a budget increment that would cover activities in the additional months?)? I'd be grateful if you could elaborate on those items before the deadline set to tomorrow.
