Call for participation in the FIA Steering Committee

The success of Future Internet Assembly is based on the importance of the topics it addresses, the foresight it shows for spotting trends and the visibility and impact of the many European and national Future Internet actions. It lives with the fast pace of the technologies it deals with. The Steering Committee plays an important role in the strategic decision making of the FIA, it chooses the topics of the FIA events and stirs the working groups. For a full description of all tasks, see here. The composition of the current Steering Committee may be found in this page. In view of the upcoming research and innovation programme Horizon 2020 we expect the Steering Committee and FIA in general to become a key platform for shaping the Future Internet activities under Horizon 2020.

If you would like to be part of the FIA Steering Committee, please send a message to infso-future-internet(at)ec.europa.eu before
28 February with a short explanation why you would like to be part also outlining any relevant experience and/or knowledge. In particular, we would like to see some ideas on how the FIA can remain interesting and relevant. We will select a number of candidates, taking into account the coverage of the different areas of the future internet, balance industry/academia, country, female/male, etc. We will report on the outcome of this renewal of the FIA Steering Board in the coming newsletters, as well would we expect the new Steering Board to be presented at FIA Aalborg.
