      Description

      Dear Sir or Madam,

      I work for the Flexible Elektrische Netze FEN GmbH in Aachen, Germany. The FEN GmbH is the central coordination for the Center for Flexible Electrical Networks (FEN), an association of institutes of the RWTH Aachen University and of industrial partners. The aim of the Center for FEN is to investigate and to develop the flexible power grid.
      I would like to ask you some more detailed information about the different membership possibilities, which one would suit us better, and about how we could join the Foundation.
      Thank you very much in advance for your answer.

      Kind regards
      Marina Maicu

        Dear Marina,

        Thank you for your interest in FIWARE.

        Now, answering your question, currently you have different ways to collaborate with FIWARE.

        The FIWARE Foundation will be formally established and operative during next months. Being part of the FIWARE Foundation is an excellent opportunity to be involved in the various decision processes which will drive the evolution and future of FIWARE. So organisations and individuals who would like to be active players in such an endeavor are invited to join!

        The FIWARE Foundation will offer four possibilities for membership: Platinum, Gold, Associate, and Individual membership.

        For what concerns SMEs I see two of the above possibilities to be of interest: Gold and Individual membership. Gold membership allows organisations to be elected in the Board of Directors (BoD) among the Gold Members representatives, to be an active member of the various Mission Critical Committees if you wish, and to vote in the General Assembly. To be a Gold member an annual fee is requested. The fee, not yet finalised by the interim BoD, is calculated as a very reasonable percentage of the organisation turnover. Individual membership allows single persons to participate in the various Mission Critical Committees if they wish, and to vote in the General Assembly. To be an Individual member no annual fee is requested. All member's in the four categories have to sign the FIWARE Code of Conduct already publicly available at https://www.fiware.org/fiware-governa....

        It is important to notice that the FIWARE Foundation is completely open and SMEs or individuals, as any other organisations, who would like to join the FIWARE Foundation do not need per se to be already FIWARE users or developers, what it is only requested is that they are committed to pursue the FIWARE Mission and to be an active player in governing the future of FIWARE.

        You can also see more information here: https://www.fiware.org/foundation/

        Please, keep in contact with us for more updates on the rules and our opening process for accepting new members.

        Let me know if you have more questions.

        Best regards,

        Malena
