VTP_Motivation = <br />
There are more than 20 million SMEs in the EU representing 99% of businesses. SMEs are considered one of the key drivers for economic growth, innovation, and employment. The European Commission has made them one of the focuses in the Horizon 2020 with the aim of putting SMEs in the lead for the delivery of innovation to the market. EGI aims at supporting this policy objective by exploring opportunities for synergies with SMEs (e.g, offering the EGI innovative services for big data analytics).<br />
<br />
The goal is to establish a Business Engagement Programme for developing relationships with SMEs and bringing them into the EGI ecosystem to create mutual value. By entering into the programme companies can identify their own business opportunities, advertise their services, and/or conduct R&D activities in collaboration with the public research sector using the capabilities that EGI makes available for them.<br />
<br />
SMEs are welcome to propose their ideas for collaboration and, if deemed appropriate, have the opportunity to participate in the development of the infrastructure, for example by creating specific user interfaces for data and infrastructure management. They could also access large scale computational capacity for developing prototypes/proof of concepts and bringing them to production, perform pre-competitive research, publish articles, and/or get access to potential clients by sponsoring/participating EGI events. The main constraints in using the EGI infrastructure is that services and applications should not have a commercial purpose, nevertheless EGI can act as a catalyst and when applications/services reach maturity for commercial exploitation, they could move the commercial market.<br />
<br />
With the creation of this virtual team we also want to create the basis for future, broader actions by identifying SMEs potentially willing to collaborate with EGI in these activities and establishing active strategic partnerships. SMEs participating in the program may also be part of future Horizon 2020 proposals.<br />
|<br />
VTP_Output = <br />
The final output of this VT is a well-defined Business Engagement program for SMEs that is validated with a number of initial companies. The VT will also produce a list (or database) of suitable SMEs across Europe potentially willing to collaborate with EGI and able to do so (NGIs’ representatives will be crucial to identify them). <br />
#SME Business Engagement Program describing target organisations, rules of engagement, value proposition<br />
#List of potential candidate SMEs<br />
#Initial list of SMEs that engage with the program and provide feedback about it<br />

VTP_Tasks = <br />
The general work plan is as follows: (Will be revised as the group starts)<br />
*Define an SME Business Engagement Program <br />
*Define the desired profile of the SMEs to be integrated<br />
*Identify potential opportunities - technical and non-technical<br />
*Create an SME/Business database of contacts across Europe (KPI: number of leads, 200 entries with contact details)<br />
*Make contact - either F2F or virtually (KPI: 40 contacts documented)<br />
*Gather feedback on experience and potential requirements<br />
*Establish formal relationship (KPI: 3) (See EBA Programme)<br />

There are more than 20 million SMEs in the EU representing 99% of businesses. SMEs are considered one of the key drivers for economic growth, innovation, and employment. The European Commission has made them one of the focuses in the Horizon 2020 with the aim of putting SMEs in the lead for the delivery of innovation to the market. EGI aims at supporting this policy objective by exploring opportunities for synergies with SMEs (e.g, offering the EGI innovative services for big data analytics).<br />
<br />
The goal is to establish a Business Engagement Programme for developing relationships with SMEs and bringing them into the EGI ecosystem to create mutual value. By entering into the programme companies can identify their own business opportunities, advertise their services, and/or conduct R&D activities in collaboration with the public research sector using the capabilities that EGI makes available for them.<br />
<br />
SMEs are welcome to propose their ideas for collaboration and, if deemed appropriate, have the opportunity to participate in the development of the infrastructure, for example by creating specific user interfaces for data and infrastructure management. They could also access large scale computational capacity for developing prototypes/proof of concepts and bringing them to production, perform pre-competitive research, publish articles, and/or get access to potential clients by sponsoring/participating EGI events. The main constraints in using the EGI infrastructure is that services and applications should not have a commercial purpose, nevertheless EGI can act as a catalyst and when applications/services reach maturity for commercial exploitation, they could move the commercial market.<br />
<br />
With the creation of this virtual team we also want to create the basis for future, broader actions by identifying SMEs potentially willing to collaborate with EGI in these activities and establishing active strategic partnerships. SMEs participating in the program may also be part of future Horizon 2020 proposals.<br />
|<br />
VTP_Output = <br />
The final output of this VT is a well-defined Business Engagement program for SMEs that is validated with a number of initial companies. The VT will also produce a list (or database) of suitable SMEs across Europe potentially willing to collaborate with EGI and able to do so (NGIs’ representatives will be crucial to identify them). <br />

VTP_Tasks = <br />
The general work plan is as follows: (Will be revised as the group starts)<br />
*Define an SME Business Engagement Program <br />
*Define the desired profile of the SMEs to be integrated<br />
*Identify potential opportunities - technical and non-technical<br />
*Create an SME/Business database of contacts across Europe (KPI: number of leads, 200 entries with contact details)<br />
*Make contact - either F2F or virtually (KPI: 40 contacts documented)<br />
*Gather feedback on experience and potential requirements<br />
*Establish formal relationship (KPI: 3) (See EBA Programme)<br />

There are more than 20 million SMEs in the EU representing 99% of businesses. SMEs are considered one of the key drivers for economic growth, innovation, and employment. The European Commission has made them one of the focuses in the Horizon 2020 with the aim of putting SMEs in the lead for the delivery of innovation to the market. EGI aims at supporting this policy objective by exploring opportunities for synergies with SMEs (e.g, offering the EGI innovative services for big data analytics).<br />
<br />
The goal is to establish a Business Engagement Programme for developing relationships with SMEs and bringing them into the EGI ecosystem to create mutual value. By entering into the programme companies can identify their own business opportunities, advertise their services, and/or conduct R&D activities in collaboration with the public research sector using the capabilities that EGI makes available for them.<br />
<br />
SMEs are welcome to propose their ideas for collaboration and, if deemed appropriate, have the opportunity to participate in the development of the infrastructure, for example by creating specific user interfaces for data and infrastructure management. They could also access large scale computational capacity for developing prototypes/proof of concepts and bringing them to production, perform pre-competitive research, publish articles, and/or get access to potential clients by sponsoring/participating EGI events. The main constraints in using the EGI infrastructure is that services and applications should not have a commercial purpose, nevertheless EGI can act as a catalyst and when applications/services reach maturity for commercial exploitation, they could move the commercial market.<br />
<br />
With the creation of this virtual team we also want to create the basis for future, broader actions by identifying SMEs potentially willing to collaborate with EGI in these activities and establishing active strategic partnerships. SMEs participating in the program may also be part of future Horizon 2020 proposals.<br />

The VT will also produce a list (or database) of suitable SMEs across Europe potentially willing to collaborate with EGI and able to do so (NGIs’ representatives will be crucial to identify them). <br />

The general work plan is as follows: (Will be revised as the group starts)<br />
*Define an SME Business Engagement Program <br />
*Define the desired profile of the SMEs to be integrated<br />
*Identify potential opportunities - technical and non-technical<br />
*Create an SME/Business database of contacts across Europe (KPI: number of leads, 200 entries with contact details)<br />
*Make contact - either F2F or virtually (KPI: 40 contacts documented)<br />
*Gather feedback on experience and potential requirements<br />
*Establish formal relationship (KPI: 3) (See EBA Programme)<br />

<br />
The following is a list of active '''Virtual team projects''', that have been accepted by NA2 task leaders. <br />
<br />
* For background information please read the '''[[virtual teams|introduction to the Virtual teamframework]]'''.<br />
* For the list of NGI International Liaisons please go to http://www.egi.eu/about/ngis/NILs.html. <br />
<br />
== Documentation ==<br />
<br />
Starting and finishing a project can be daunting tasks and they certainly depend on a sound understanding of what is to be achieved, by whom , for whom and by when. Defining the achievable aims and objectives of the project and the resources (human and material) that are realistically available are essential at the very start for any chance of success. At the end of the project, the output needs to be delivered to whoever commissioned the project - this needs to be backed by a Final Prject Report that confirms (or otherwise) that what was promised at the beginning is being delivered at the end. A [https://documents.egi.eu/document/1991 Project Initiation Document and a Final Project Report] are available in template form as a source of guidance for all those starting new Virtual Team projects. These are not obligatory formats for VTs but all VT leaders should read the guidance. <br />
<br />
== Reporting & management ==<br />
<br />
VTs are to report weekly to the Director InSPIRE via the VT project co-ordinator, Richard McLennan in UCST. Inputs to a collective report are to be provided by the start of business every Monday morning. the intent is simply to demonstrate how work is being progressed and seek the EGI-InSPIRE Director's backing for help/resources/time if you need any of those.<br />
<br />
When reporting, please indicate:<br />
* VT Project name<br />
* Reporting period (start date and end date), e.g. "Mon 1 Apr - Tue 23 Apr".<br />
* Work achieved over the period<br />
* Work planned (for next weeks)<br />
* Significant Issues/Additional support needed. <br />
* Please also provide your assessment of how much remains to be done till completion.<br />
<br />
If you have not reported any activity for a number of weeks, then you should give serious consideration to the original need for the project and if the original requirement has been overtaken by other developments. There is little point in persevering with work when there is no longer a real need.<br />
<br />
Please send your reports to richard.mclennan@egi.eu.<br />
<br />
==== Effort reporting ====<br />
<br />
These projects are conducted via un-funded VT project teams and there is thus no formal mechanism for recording or reporting the level of effort expended in progressing each project. Nevertheless, every good project manager should recognise the level of effort (time and other resources) required to progress tasks to completion, particularly when others are assigned to the work.<br />

There are more than 20 million SMEs in the EU representing 99% of businesses. SMEs are considered one of the key drivers for economic growth, innovation, and employment. The European Commission has made them one of the focuses in the Horizon 2020 with the aim of putting SMEs in the lead for the delivery of innovation to the market. EGI aims at supporting this policy objective by exploring opportunities for synergies with SMEs (e.g, offering the EGI innovative services for big data analytics).<br />
<br />
The goal is to establish a Business Engagement Programme for developing relationships with SMEs and bringing them into the EGI ecosystem to create mutual value. By entering into the programme companies can identify their own business opportunities, advertise their services, and/or conduct R&D activities in collaboration with the public research sector using the capabilities that EGI makes available for them.<br />
<br />
SMEs are welcome to propose their ideas for collaboration and, if deemed appropriate, have the opportunity to participate in the development of the infrastructure, for example by creating specific user interfaces for data and infrastructure management. They could also access large scale computational capacity for developing prototypes/proof of concepts and bringing them to production, perform pre-competitive research, publish articles, and/or get access to potential clients by sponsoring/participating EGI events. The main constraints in using the EGI infrastructure is that services and applications should not have a commercial purpose, nevertheless EGI can act as a catalyst and when applications/services reach maturity for commercial exploitation, they could move the commercial market.<br />
<br />
With the creation of this virtual team we also want to create the basis for future, broader actions by identifying SMEs potentially willing to collaborate with EGI in these activities and establishing active strategic partnerships. SMEs participating in the program may also be part of future Horizon 2020 proposals.<br />

The goal is to establish a Business Engagement Programme for developing relationships with SMEs and bringing them into the EGI ecosystem to create mutual value. By entering into the programme companies can identify their own business opportunities, advertise their services, and/or conduct R&D activities in collaboration with the public research sector using the capabilities that EGI makes available for them.<br />
<br />
SMEs are welcome to propose their ideas for collaboration and, if deemed appropriate, have the opportunity to participate in the development of the infrastructure, for example by creating specific user interfaces for data and infrastructure management. They could also access large scale computational capacity for developing prototypes/proof of concepts and bringing them to production, perform pre-competitive research, publish articles, and/or get access to potential clients by sponsoring/participating EGI events. The main constraints in using the EGI infrastructure is that services and applications should not have a commercial purpose, nevertheless EGI can act as a catalyst and when applications/services reach maturity for commercial exploitation, they could move the commercial market.<br />
<br />
With the creation of this virtual team we also want to create the basis for future, broader actions by identifying SMEs potentially willing to collaborate with EGI in these activities and establishing active strategic partnerships. SMEs participating in the program may also be part of future Horizon 2020 proposals.<br />

VTP_Output = <br />
The final output of this VT is a well-defined Business Engagement program for SMEs that is validated with a number of initial companies. The VT will also produce a list (or database) of suitable SMEs across Europe potentially willing to collaborate with EGI and able to do so (NGIs’ representatives will be crucial to identify them). <br />

VTP_Tasks = <br />
The general workplan is as follows: (Will be revised as the group starts)<br />
*Define an SME Business Engagement Program <br />
*Define the desired profile of the SMEs to be integrated<br />
*Create an SME/Business database of contacts across Europe (KPI: number of leads, 200 entries with contact details)<br />
*Identify potential opportunities - technical and non-technical<br />
*Make contact - either F2F or virtually (KPI: 40 contacts documented)<br />
*Gather feedback on experience and potential requirements<br />
*Establish formal relationship (KPI: 3) (See EBA Programme)<br />

There are more than 20 million SMEs in the EU representing 99% of businesses. SMEs are considered one of the key drivers for economic growth, innovation, and employment.
