[Fiware-smart-agrifood-dc] Great news - FIWARE explicitly mentioned in Recovery, Transformation and Resilience National Plan for the Agrifood sector published by the Spanish Government

[Juanjo Hierro]

Dear all,

   This week, the Spanish Government has published the Recovery, 
Transformation and Resilience Spanish National Plan 
<https://www.lamoncloa.gob.es/presidente/actividades/Paginas/2020/espana-puede.aspx>.

   I believe it is worth mentioning that FIWARE, and the creation of a 
Digital Innovation Hub (with several centers across the country) focused 
on FIWARE, is mentioned within the specific plan created for the 
Agrifood sector.

   See presentation 
<https://www.lamoncloa.gob.es/serviciosdeprensa/notasprensa/agricultura/Documents/2021/170521-PRTR-MAPA.pdf> 
(check slide 18) and full document 
<https://www.lamoncloa.gob.es/temas/fondos-recuperacion/Documents/05052021-Componente3.pdf> 
(part of action C3.15, budgeted with 4M€, specific references to FIWARE 
on pages 37, 38 and 98).

   Perhaps an inspiration for other countries and a reference that could 
help for positioning FIWARE in Agrifood?   Certainly Spain is one of the 
main producers in the Agrifood sector in Europe, so I believe this means 
something.  We may compare as if Germany has published something similar 
regarding Industrie 4.0.

   @Andrea/Harald: I would consider making a reference to this 
announcement in the introduction of the Smart Agrifood session.

   Congratulations to Juan Marcelo, who I know was deeply involved in 
this matter :-)  Also to Carlos Callejero, who has been invited in 
several Working Groups that the Ministry organized for strategic 
discussions and always advocated for FIWARE!

   Cheers!
