FI-IMPACT / FI-Business FIWARE Preparation Workshop, 18 September, Munich 

FI-IMPACT and FI-Business are cooperating to organise a Joint FIWARE Call Preparation Workshop during ECFI2 in Munich on 18th September.

The workshop aims to: 

• Present Critical Market Data from IDC and mapping of thematic areas funded by different FIWARE Accelerators
• Help participants to identify and shape potential business opportunities for their ideas, concepts and inventions.

Key factors for a successful FI-PPP Application are knowing your existing capacity as an inventor and identifying the right business opportunity for each invention or innovation. 

This joint FI-IMPACT and FI Business Workshop will provide invaluable market intelligence, guidance and support to address these issues. 

Brief presentations will be provided in relation to the STIN business recognition concept and current IDC market data to provide a context for knowledge exchange and discussion during the workshop.

This will be followed by a Knowledge Cafe focused on self assessment and market mapping, and an elaboration of the Invention Handbook.

Target audience

The workshop is relevant for inventors, researchers, entrepreneurs or SMEs interested in better understanding the opportunities presented by the FIWARE Accelerator Calls.
