FI-PPP and FI-WARE: Pan-European platforms making Future
Internet-enabled innovation easier
What is genuine in the FI-PPP
Commitment for openness and market deployment:• Delivery of results in open source
• Commercial offering in the short term
• Executive Industry Board in action
Better suited to align with roadmap of product developments by partners:
• Industry- and Implementation-driven approach
• Results exploitable in the short-medium term (4-5 years since start) rather than in the long-term (10-15 years)
Active presence in market-oriented events targeted to attract:• Potential customers (including Public
Administrations)
• Developers and Entrepreneurs

The Future Internet Public-Private Partnership (FI-PPP)
The aim of the FI-PPP is to ensure that the Future Internet enables a smarter world, fostering growth, competitiveness and job creation through innovation
This requires creating an generic, open and standard platform (FI-WARE) and a meeting point (FI-LAB) around which a dynamic innovation ecosystem can be created engaging developers and entrepreneurs
Born in Europe but open to regions who share the same vision to create a single market and create the opportunity to re-use and exploit economies of scale
