Hi Juanjo,

That’s a very good proposal, and it’s fine by me!
Concerning the possibility to replicate with other partners and countries, I’ll check with TI’s corporate departments if there can be similar opportunities we can exploit as dissemination in Italy.

just a question: do they will provide jury members for their event or

these should be from us?

  We didn't discuss that but we may ask.   Sure they are fine.  The only matter is that it would probably require to attend the event which I'm afraid will be run in Spanish ... I believe that probably proposals are not requested to be written/explained in english.

  The event is run on 3-5 April.





in addition i think also for this event we should provide training and

coaching, isn't it?

  I don't believe this is strictly necessary ... they didn't ask for that ... This is targeted to computer science students, so that they are expected to be able to manage just reading the documentation :-)







so not really for free for us, but certainly still a good deal!

  Well ... my major point is that we get sponsorship (5.600 €) for additional two teams in the finals (why not if they are good enough?) and we will benefit from the promotion in their event ... it's true that it is a bit "local" (Spain) but, on the other hand, it is a formula we should seek while dealing with dissemination in other countries.   I would certainly ask partners to check whether there is any kind of hackathon, challenge or event about social apps in their country.   Then, it might be a good deal for them to give away prizes that are linked to the FI-WARE Challenge.

  So, thanks for the support ...

  Best regards,

Dear members of the PCC,



  I would like to forward to you a proposal that people in charge of the

division within Telefónica Corporation that deals with Social Reputation

Corporate activities has formulated to me.   I believe that it is a rather

good deal but I would ask for your approval.



  This division is currently organizing an event, titled as "Hacking For

Good" which is kind of a hackathon/challenge event where they give prizes to

developers who create nice applications that bring some sort of benefit to

the society.   The "Hacking For Good" event will take place next



  Obviously, when they heard about our FI-WARE Smart Society Challenge they

felt like it would be a good idea to establish some link between the two

initiatives.



  After some discussion, they have come with a proposal that looks rather

attractive to me.   They propose to define 4 special prizes within their

contest to be given away to applications that compete in their event that

are based on FI-WARE.     These special prizes would mean to get a direct

pass to the finals of the FI-WARE Smart Society Challenge, getting the

corresponding 2.800 EURO.



  They are happy to fund two of these 4 special prizes, so that they would

give away 5.600 EURO from their pocket and we would then be able to allow 22

teams, rather than 20, to pass to the finals.



  The win for us is that certainly the four selected teams will be good

candidates, and we have got places for additional two teams in the finals of

the FI-WARE Smart Society challenge without any cost for us.   In addition,

they would give higher visibility and will advertize the FI-WARE Smart

Society Challenge, since it becomes connected to their event.



  I feel like this is a pretty nice deal and indeed I would encourage other

partners in FI-WARE to find whether they could explore similar opportunities

in their companies.



  I would like to get a go/no-go before tomorrow noon.    This would allow

to incorporate references to FI-WARE in a press release they plan to publish

tomorrow.   Sorry for the sort notice but it came all of a sudden.



  Looking forward your response,



-- Juanjo
