- <p><strong>WP 3.3: White Paper</strong><br><em>Dr George Chryssochoidis</em><br><em>Agricultural University of Athens</em><br><em>May 30th, 2005 for discussion in the June SMB Meeting</em></p> <p><strong>1. Introduction: EuroFIR - the nature of the task at hand</strong><br>The current picture is that EuroFIR’s future activities will eventually evolve to centre around four interrelated yet different activities: (1) The creation and maintenance of an information portal. (2) The development and commercialization of software based upon and using portal-derived information. A by-product of this will be print versions which can be marketed either in conjunction or separately. (3) Training and executive development seminars. (4) Associated laboratory and consultancy services (around single modules of activity or their combination).</p> <p><br>The basis of all activities appears to be the creation and maintenance of the main food data composition information portal. A Portal Solution can ultimately provide a personalized, single point of access to critical data, information and services for both network internal and external users. An overall, technologically flexible architecture plan is required to enable seamless integration of any Portal Solution. The data and information available in the Portal Solution will subsequently form the basis for most of the remaining activities including development and commercialization of software, print versions, training/executive seminars and any associated services/consulting.</p> <p><br>An additional output may be research and practice in other areas. This aspect appears to hold true when considering the works of consortia like Safefoods where risk assessment methods require linking to food data composition. EuroFIR is at the very centre of developments and the creation of the portal may well serve as the centre-piece for a large number of research audiences outside the area of nutrition.</p> <p><br>Any software development (or royalty-based certification or royalty-based data provision) endeavour alongside print versions and training/executive development may probably prove however to be a higher value-added activity compared to the Portal Solution. This appears to be the case due to the ‘public information’ nature of the basic Portal functions. Information about the current conditions regarding public sector information, pricing models, intellectual property rights and related aspects is available in the appendix (see separate file: EU Com (1998:585) ‘Public Sector Information: A key resource for Europe’). Obviously, any value-added services or more complex calculations available through the portal can also attract different pricing strategies.</p>
