Objective CONTEXT: In an increasingly global economy, both information and information technology are of great significance to SMEs to increase their competitiveness, achieve their economic potential and internationalize. The transfer of this information between different platforms or applications is called integration and it’s a critical element for companies and organizations to survive.PROBLEM: Integration need to be done such a way as to reduce the administrative and IT burden while keeping costs low and fostering internationalization. up to the date integration is out of reach for most organizations because of its high cost and complexity:NEED: it is necessary to provide SMEs with integration solutions with an appropriate level of abstraction to allow connection of software applications in a secure and consistent in a cost-effective way.OBJECTIVE: demonstrate the technical and commercial feasibility of a security integration platform as a service (iPaaS). i2factory is a cost-efficient platform where organizations can develop all their integration projects and link functionalities between different systems and platforms as they like it when they like it, without any programming or component installation. To date, i2factory has invested Approx. € 1.5 M to release the first functional version of i2factory v1.0 which is currently tested in users. We estimate that a sum of 914 K is still needed to rapidly and effectively launch i2factory v2.0 innovative solution into the market. With the development of i2factory v2.0 we will allow our company to consolidate and expand its market in Europe.Phase 1 will include a to feasibility assessment to guarantee the technical and commercial viability and profitability of our project confirm a business plan for successful commercialisation of i2factory v2.0 Fields of science social sciencessociologyindustrial relationsautomationnatural sciencesbiological sciencesecologyecosystemsnatural sciencescomputer and information sciencessoftwaresoftware applications Programme(s) H2020-EU.2.1.1. - INDUSTRIAL LEADERSHIP - Leadership in enabling and industrial technologies - Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) Main Programme H2020-EU.2.3.1. - Mainstreaming SME support, especially through a dedicated instrument Topic(s) SMEInst-01-2016-2017 - Open Disruptive Innovation Scheme Call for proposal H2020-SMEInst-2016-2017 See other projects for this call Sub call H2020-SMEINST-1-2016-2017 Funding Scheme SME-1 - SME instrument phase 1 Coordinator INTELLIGENT INTEGRATION FACTORY SL Net EU contribution € 50 000,00 Address CALLE CAUCHO PARQUE CIENTIFICO Y TECNOLOGICO DE HU 1 21110 ALJARAQUE HUELVA Spain See on map SME The organization defined itself as SME (small and medium-sized enterprise) at the time the Grant Agreement was signed.
