FIWARE Open day, 7th of March, 2017 in Brussels

The FIWARE team, in partnership with the FIWARE Foundation, is organising an Open Day, that will be held in Brussels on the 7th of March 2017 at the European Commission Charlemagne building.

The half-day event will mark the beginning of the go-to-market for FIWARE and will be a good opportunity to debate with key stakeholders about the future of the FIWARE ecosystem based on the key achievements of the Future Internet Public-Private Partnership and its 5-year unique journey creating a new ecosystem for growth, business and jobs in Europe. The key achievements of the FI-PPP include the setting up of the FIWARE Open Source Foundation in Berlin, a growing FIWARE ecosystem and close integration of the PPP outcomes to national growth and innovation plans such as the Industry 4.0.

Furthermore, the Open Day will be a good occasion to explore the opportunities offered by open, standardised APIs for the development of the Digital Single Market and the European Industry 4.0.
