2. Project Description (<401 words)

3. Summary of activities (< 401 words)

• Major achievements (e.g. completion of market and user requirements survey, completion of demonstrator design or implementation, initial reactions and feedback from users, first results).
• The annual report should also describe where the project is "positioned" for the next year, describing which are the activities that will be completed and the results that are expected. As regards the final report, a description of possible future activities that derive from the completion of the project should be included.

3.1 <Important work areas>

• Make a short section for each substantial and important area of work completed/started. This should be tailored to reader needs rather than being oriented around work packages.
• As a rule of thumb, each section should be around 400 words long. However, the final services/products, their functional description, their validation and other related information (see below) should be given more space and detail.
• The sections should cover subjects such as:
  • User/customer requirements and resulting product profile (provide a summary of your research on user/customer requirements, the user groups you address, and the resulting product profile)
  • Content/technology outlook and innovative features (provide a summary of the main innovative features of the project that will allow the implemented services/products to be competitive in the market)
  • Market prospects (provide a summary of your market research, giving an overview of the market situation, future trends in your target markets.)
  • Business plan (provide a summary of your business model, expected revenues, expected costs to maintain the service, break-even point, etc.)
  • Final services/products implemented (describe the services/products: functionality, simplified architecture, innovative features, limitations etc. Include appropriate details of platform and/or third-party software integrated. A graphic (screen capture, diagram etc.) may be a good method to illustrate the system. Explain how the demonstrator meets user requirements. If possible, state how interested parties can have a demonstration or try out the system.)
• The information provided should obviously be congruent with the current stage within the project's lifecycle. Some projects will typically report on their services/products, others may concentrate on market research and system specifications.

4. Dissemination and awareness (< 401 words)

Focus on project-level activities, including:

• the project user group, its membership and activities;
• other activities that have significantly raised the profile and visibility of the project (for instance presentations at international events, publications, press and media coverage) 5 Future

5. Future work and exploitation prospects (< 401 words)

Include a brief summary of major activities to come. This can include developments, but other events/actions that might be of interest to the reader are also especially relevant, for example when the services/products are going to be available on the market, future additional services/products, etc.
