IDC represented FI-IMPACT during the FIWARE Networking event in Rome on 19 April, hosted by the INCENSe Accelerator. The event was opened with a presentation of the FIWARE Foundation, and followed by a panel discussion titled “Openess as a driver for growth”, where interventions focused on how to boost growth and create value through open innovation. 

Stefania Aguzzi presented "Mapping the FIWARE Startups"  providing the latest insights from FI-IMPACT on the FIWARE Startups ecosystem, including the preliminary insights from Mattermark tracking of FIWARE sub-grantees. The presentation was well received by the participants, with followups from some attendees to get further information on FI-IMPACT results. 

During the second part of the event, 4 startups accelerated by INCENSe (Snapback, ARES2T, Modio Computing and Tera) made a presentation of their solutions and their experience with FIWARE technology.

The roundtable discussion was focused on digital communication for statups, crowdfunding and on tips and advice to improve startups’ pitch and entrepeneurial skills.

FI-IMPACT has published a FIWARE Case Study on Beeta (Building Energy Efficiency Trusted Advisor) (TERA srl, Italy), which aims to be a trusted advisor for energy efficiency for households and small building owners. FI-IMPACT has also published a FIWARE Profile on Green Momit. Both sub-grantees were funded by the INCENSE FIWARE Accelerator.
