1 FI-PPP Value for Smart Cities Nuria de Lama, Representative of Atos Research & Innovation to the EC, Atos FI-WARE team

2 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 Transport, Mobility and Logistics tourism e-government This requires a generic, open and standard platform (FI-WARE) and a meeting point around (FI-LAB) where a dynamic innovation ecosystem can be created engaging developers and entrepreneurs Smart Energy Grid ehealth Born in Europe but open to regions who share the same vision Open APIs for Open Minds 1

3 What is genuine in the FI-PPP Commitment for exploitation required: Commercial offer in the short term; Delivery of results in open source anyway 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) 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 2

4 Why are Smart Cities relevant to FI-WARE and FI-Lab (and the FI-PPP as a whole) 3

5 Cities are where daily life and businesses actually happen And that s why Smart Cities become so strategic in paving the way for innovation and ultimately boosting productivity and growth 4

6 Why are FI-WARE and FI-Lab relevant to Smart Cities 5

7 A standard platform is required for sustainability of Smart Cities Avoid vendor lock-in: Ranging from sensors to applications (open data and APIs) Ability to choose between platform providers Larger community of potential Application Providers that fosters competition True innovation Better prices Not any standard is enough Modularity Allow different business models Integration with standard open data platform Non-intrusive 6

8 But defining a standard alone is not enough Standard Platform Sustainable ecosystem 7

9 How can Smart Cities become a reality Standard Platform A true open innovation ecosystem 8

10 FI-WARE = advanced OpenStack-based Cloud + rich library of Generic Enablers Driven by implementation Sustainability ensured 9

11 FI-LAB: going beyond technology, the meeting point where a new Open Innovation ecosystem will be boosted Application sponsors (business, cities, etc) Connect to entrepreneurs Put their data at work Visibility, promotion Costs saving Better service to customers Corporate Reputation Entrepreneurs, Developers Ability to test with real data Ability to run trials with real users Visibility, promotion Hosting of permanent showcase Connection to potential customers Acceleration of product development 4,2 M devoted to training and promotion including 870 K in prizes FI-WARE Technology Providers Added value to just the technology Connecting to entrepreneurs: Revenue-sharing opportunities 100 M of funding for web entrepreneurs Expansion to other regions beyond Europe 10

12 Building the FI-WARE ecosystem: the vision FI-WARE Catalogue Commercial facility Instructions for creation of dedicated GE instances Instructions for using Global shared GE instance FI-Lab expansion across Europe as shared facility for Trials (XiFi project) Current FI-Lab (FI-WARE Open Innovation Lab) Trial 2 Current focus: Take up of FI-WARE results by Internet application developers and entrepreneurs Creation and support of a dynamic innovation ecosystem FI-Lab expansion across Europe Trial 1 Specific UC Trial facilities 11

13 Infrastructure Federation for Future Internet (powered by XIFI) The initial 5 sites: Ireland France Spain Germany Italy Brittany Waterford Berlin Trento Sevilla 12

14 Smart Cities ecosystem actually emerging Some cities already connecting to FI-Lab: Italy: Trento, Torino, Veneto Spain: Seville, Malaga, Santander, Zaragoza Finland: Espoo Discussion with cities in other countries ongoing FI-WARE Challenge on Smart Cities: Launched end of October 300+ teams (individuals, startups, SMEs few researchers) applied to the challenge (ES, EN) 20 final teams participated to the final in CPBR 14 13

15 Smart cities challenge Winners from Campus Party Brazil FI-GUARDIAN Application that supports communication, orientation and warning of adverse circumstances such as natural disasters SPARKY Mobile application and a hardware device to help parking owners share their spaces while not in use and help drivers find a short or long-term parking place SMART BOX The main objective is to "sensorize" cities, obtaining a huge source of useful information that consumers can check from their homes through a tv screen and a remote control 14

16 Success is only feasible through a strong Public-Private Partnership 15

17 How can we collaborate? 16

20 We value the endorsement of the EC Neelie Kroes launched FI-LAB at Campus Party Europe in London (full speech here) FI-WARE is one way we are levelling a playing field: a project to make innovative technologies available for all. Smart cities are a great example They create platforms, and use them, making open data and applications available to citizens, to developers, to innovators, to come up with yet more ideas and this is where initiatives like the FI-LAB come in. Led by industry, this is a major investment in generic technology. She also made a reference to FI-LAB at the launch of the EIP on Smart Cities and Communities (full speech here) Just earlier this week I launched the Future Internet lab That's something that you can turn into real results, real jobs, and real innovation. European platforms helping European innovation in European cities. Additional mentions by the EC compiled here 19
