2. FI-PPP AT A GLANCE (II)
• The Future Internet Public-Private Partnership (FI-PPP)
Programme brings public and private actors together to
“advance Europe's competitiveness in Future Internet
technologies and systems and to support the emergence of
Future Internet-enhanced applications of public and social
relevance”.
• The Programme’s approach:
• Industry-led – the PPP is a short-term (i.e. 5 year)
initiative helping competitiveness and growth of
industries in the internet value chain (networks,
services, applications);
• European-focussed – helping to grow the vibrant
European Internet industry – into a European industrial
stronghold; and,
• User-driven – as services and applications become
ever more agile and changing, users play a key role in
driving application led initiative.
