Table 5 Target projects for FI-C3 partners

• 
  PRESS RELEASE
  

A press release will be published if the FI-C3 consortium considers it appropriate and necessary to increase the FI-C3 awareness.

• 
  SOCIAL MEDIA DISSEMINATION
  

FI-C3 project will take advantage of the already used LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter accounts from each partner of the consortium. Social media dissemination will be carried out by the each partner using its existing social media tools. FI-C3 accelerator will not open specific social media accounts.

Moreover, a F6S platform profile site has been set. The F6S profile is being used to promote and disseminate FI-C3 calls. By the publication date of this Deliverable, the F6S FI-C3 page has 151 followers. You can access the FI-C3 page at F6S platform through the following URL: http://www.f6s.com/fiware-fi-c3#/about

For internal communication the partners are provided with an internal mailing list and a collaborative platform. Personal as well as virtual meetings will also take place.

Every FI-C3 project partner has access to the Platform and can add information. The internal collaborative platform is managed by iMinds and will be maintained and supported by the same partner.

The Platform is accessible by using this URL: https://myminds.be/share/page/site/fi-c3/dashboard.
