2. Future Internet:
Comprehensive EU approach
longer-term R&D 
integration of new ICT & new ideas 
technology risk
FP7
open platforms and interoperability 
FIRE  at-scale experimentation
 collaborative/exploratory environ.
FI PPP  market oriented R&D, supply/demand
 cost-efficiency, common enablers
CIP  large scale trials (using existing technology)
 service innovation
Piloting 2-3 years 5-10 years time to market
deployment
