We plan to maintain ~30% (12M Euro) of the project budget for distribution among new partners New partners will be selected through Open Calls to allow for responding to emerging user requirements not identified at the start of the project, e.g., due to new usage areas, new technologies, new economic conditions Specific component of the budget will be reserved for SMEs (aprox 30%) and Research Centers (aprox 30%) Selection of new partners will be done according to the procedure issued by the Commission European Commission 23 October 2009v1a Guidance note for project coordinators planning a competitive call for additional beneficiaries in an ICT Integrated Project or Network of excellence Management of Open Calls
Open callprocedure The budget devoted to the Open Calls is 12.300.000 €, or 30% of total funding. The expected distribution of this budget between the two planned Open Calls is about 8.000.000 € in the first Open Call and 4.300.000 € in the second Open Call.
SomeFAQs (1/2) • Do we need to form a consortium or just one entity is enough? • R/ See rules. We do not need a consortium, we already have one • Looking for SW developers or innovative, ground breaking work? • R/ Good foundations and results to be integrated. We are not reinveinting Internet, rather we want to put into use to the citizens • Are you looking for built, completed solutions? • R/ We need to innovate, but we are also valuing existing results (software that works) and expertise. Integration is important. • Should we write a long, impact related document? • R/ we need description your results rather than “standard” impact sections • However, we really would like to see commitment to the implementation
SomeFAQs (2/2) • Any constraints regarding IPRs ? • Specification of APIs and interoperable protocols linked to any product/technology contributed to FI-WARE must be open and royalty-free • Must be licensed free of charge in the context of the PPP • Must be licensable under FRAND terms outside the PPP • How can I really understand what you have already?. • R/ See our web site (www.fi-ware.eu) • Can provideyousomeexample of thekind of thingsyou are lookingfor ? • R/ Stilltooearlybut be surewewillmostlyaskforrather concrete products, technologiesorskills • Examples(notmeaningthey are real): • Document-orientedNo-SQL Data Storage Technology • Development of advancedwidgetsforanEventMonitoringDashboardConsole
Our objective • Working together to make it possible: • New services for everybody • Smart applications • Innovative business models • Providing the Technology Foundation • Standard interfaces. • Open to other actors (SMEs) • Scalable and demand oriented (cloud) create a solid basis for the Internet of the Future
