1) The document discusses ECO-SYSTEM, a proposed solution to address market fragmentation and workforce issues in the EU app economy. 2) ECO-SYSTEM consists of three components: the European Apps Tendering System, EATS Challenge, and EATS Venture. The Apps Tendering System would connect app developers with businesses seeking new apps. EATS Challenge would award prizes for the best apps developed around certain themes. EATS Venture would be a venture capital fund investing in promising startups. 3) The proposal claims ECO-SYSTEM could boost the EU app sector by matching developers with paid work, incentivizing innovative apps, and financing high-potential startups.

2. ECOSYSTEM by ASM Corporation
Anyone can create a marketplace. At Rakuten, we've created an ecosystem.
The choice of the word “ecosystem” is not accidental. It’s an intentional reference to the organic
relationships that bloom in the natural world. A successful ecosystem serves all its residents and
supports all its resources. We recreate that concept on the Internet. In that way, we are much
more than a mall.
Hiroshi Mikitani, CEO, Rakuten Inc.
 What is the target of ECO-SYSTEM ?
Build an Eco-system of app developers, Businesses and endcustomers.
 Because everyone will be a member of this eco-system and will
benefit from it, our solution is named:
ECO-SYSTEM
 ECO-SYSTEM addresses the market fragmentation and
workforce issue.

revolution”.
Example :
Major American Automakers like Ford have made
major steps in the field of “connected cars”. Around
2,500 developers have signed up since January to
develop apps that work with Ford SYNC. GM also
has its own project. This is just the beginning of a
new era for the automotive services industry,
insurance industry, after-sales management, ecofriendly driving, automobile sharing, second-hand
sale of the car, leisure for passengers, Responsible
Connectivity, Informed Driving, Location Services
and Telematics convenience.

business – and commit not to deliver it to other
competitors of the business.
Next year, European Apps Tendering System may
invite one major European Automaker to subsidize
this challenge. The theme shall be: New Apps on a
dashboard tablet for passengers and drivers.

potential customers might be less fond of
technology, screens will be everywhere and they
can be a major help for them.
Possible themes can be: “Elderly People”,

15. EATS Venture
Whatis the goal of EATS Venture ?
EATS Venture is a Venture capital fund managed by EATS Organization.
Whyisitmeaningful ?
EATS Venture is based on a huge
competitive advantage
Thanks to both European Apps Tendering System and
EATS Challenge, EATS Venture will have:
•Direct access to the European Apps developers and
good knowledge of their real skills.
•Direct access to the Businesses and good knowledge
of their needs concerning Apps development.
EATS Venture isverydifferentfrom
the 2 stepsdescribedbefore
• EATS Venture requires higher
amount of cash
• But EATS Venture can be launched
as a second step
because the competitive advantage comes from the fact
that European Apps Tendering System knows the
European Apps Eco-system better than anybody.
Based on this competitive advantage, it will be best positioned to:
•Organize regular events between Entrepreneurs and Venture Capitalists in
Brussels.
•Invest in start-ups in this field along with these Venture Capitalists.

For European Businesses
They improve brand awareness
because they deliver original
Apps to their customer at the

obtain source code of hundreds
of Apps which they can sell to
their customers

Businesses,
