Call for participation from EU FP7 project CloudSME

CloudBroker is participating in the EU FP7 project CloudSME (“Cloud based Simulation platform for Manufacturing and Engineering”). This project has just issued a call for participation. Please find the corresponding announcement below:

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,

the EU is committed to help manufacturing and engineering SMEs in Europe improve their competitiveness as part of their factories for the future initiative.

To this end, it is funding a project called CloudSME (www.cloudsme.eu) which is working towards giving manufacturing and engineering SMEs easy and cost-effective access to simulation software in the cloud.

There might be an opportunity for to participate with a use case or to cooperate with this project. A respective open call will be published in the first half of 2014.
As part of the project, we are also conducting 2 surveys:

1. To understand the needs and interests of manufacturing and engineering SMEs in Europe for simulation services in the cloud. The survey is available online at:

2. To understand the needs and requirements of Simulation Software vendors:

We would appreciate if you would share your use case with us and/or fill one of the above survey.

Should you require more information, please do not hesitate to get back to us.

Thank you very much.
