04 – 09 September 20167 Galway City, Ireland

The 2017 Open Internet of Things summer school is an event organized by the OpenIoT consortium, CREATE-IoT Project, ACTIVAGE LSP and FIESTA-IoT Project following the EU IERC-Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda (2016-2018 IERC IoT-SRIA) with focus on providing insights about Open Source Solutions, Service Openness and Semantic Interoperability for the Internet of Things.

Healthcare and Wellbeing, Privacy, Security and Trust are incorporated this year as a focus areas for Large Scale Deployments (LSP)

Open Internet of Things Summer School is an international event for the different stakeholders involved in the IoT ecosystem, scientific researcher(s) across Europe and other parts of the world, open Source communities and developers and to any large enterprise or entrepreneurs (SME) / individuals interested to participate, contribute, develop and acquire the know-how about Intenet of Things technology, Middleware platforms and services and Applications based on the Open source IoT middlewares.

In this 4th Edition of the Open Internet of Things summer school, a variety of specialized Internet of Things technical topics are covered in depth , from sensor networks, sensing data, stream data processing, methods and protocol implementation to service openness, interoperability, service scheduling, delivery, utility management, and their applications with focus on IoT horizontal solutions in multidisciplinary areas, (e.g. smart city, intelligent manufacturing, car2car communications, M2M, smart appliances, etc.)

3rd Open Call Statistics

Our recent Open Call providing up to EUR50K for IoT experiments attracted significant interest; here is an initial outline of the statistics, we will announce the actual winners in the near future.

We received in total 30 proposals for Experiments in the two categories:
• 21 proposals were submitted in the category “Innovation”
• 9 proposals were submitted in the category “Scientific Excellence”
Among the proposers, 9 are universities and research institutes, 15 are SMEs and 6 are Large Industries.

The proposals originated from the following 9 countries (in no particular order): France, Greece, Italy, Spain, Serbia, Portugal, UK, Switzerland, and Cyprus.

After a thorough review process by external independent reviewers, it was found that the quality of most proposals was very good. Due to the number of good proposals in the Innovation category and the strict project schedule, an extension of the budget for this call was decided, shifting budget from the 4th open call, so that two more proposals can be accepted. Thus, in total 14 proposals from 8 countries were accepted in this call: 10 in the innovation category and 4 in the Scientific Excellence category.

The FIESTA-IoT project thanks all proposers for their efforts. We congratulate the accepted proposers that have been selected for funding!
