Third Future Internet Award competition now open

Entries are now being accepted for the third running of the Future Internet Award, the winner of which will be presented during Poznan's Future Internet Week in October.

The FI Award, supported and organised by the ceFIMS Coordination Action, is an opportunity for European national and regional Future Internet initiatives to promote their work. Initiatives can take the form of innovative products and services that will shape the Future Internet. The Award is presented every six months to the initiative adjudged to have the greatest potential to advance the Future Internet and which provides an exemplar for innovate products/services.

The winners of the second Award were announced during Budapest's Future Internet Week in May, 2010. Details on the winners and the Award ceremony are available on the ceFIMS website, under the FI Award banner: www.cefims.eu/fiaward

The closing date for receipt of completed entry forms is Friday 16th September, 2011. The entry form is attached and is also available for download on the ceFIMS website. Completed entry forms should be sent to Kieran Sullivan: ksullivan(at)tssg.org

I would be very grateful if you would please disseminate details of the Award to relevant actions and projects in your Member State.

Projects and initiatives which submitted entries previously are again invited to enter the current competition.

With thanks and kind regards,
Dr. Willie Donnelly & Kieran Sullivan
