            TARGETTED STARTUPS

•      The beneficiaries of the Programme are technology companies, mainly start-ups with less than five years old and with a high level of innovation and technological development in their activity (We call start-up a company with a business model with high growth potential)
•       Selection of between 6 and 8 start-ups
•     Prioritization criteria: Priority is given to those start-ups with a business model concurrent with a development strategy based of an application using the FI-WARE Platform. Projects which include a model with a potential international expansion will be also considered as preferred

             BENEFITS AND MOTIVATIONS FOR STARTUPS

•       The startups selected will have a access to a complete training program with technical sessions to support developing applications in the FI-WARE platform. They will have also access to business mentoring sessions
•       The participants of the training program will compete for three recognition seats as the Best Project Application using FI-WARE
•       Obtaining one of these three recognition seats will allow the project presentation at the Third International Workshop UPM_innovatech, which will be attended by experts and international investors.
