REACH Call for Evaluators 2020

REACH is looking for evaluators to help select 30 of the brightest big data start-ups/SMEs that have applied to be part of our next incubation programme

WHAT IS REACH?
REACH is a European Big Data Incubator, focused on the development of products and solutions that rely on secured and trusted Data Value Chains and demonstrate that Data Silos can be broken across sectors and stakeholders.

With REACH, start-ups will get the chance to grow their business whilst solving a real-life big data challenge for a corporate or data value chain theme, being backed up with up to €120K, 1:1 mentoring, and training.

In order to do this, we would like to bring in the expertise of external evaluators to decide which project applications the REACH programme should accept and support. Your help will be needed after the closure of the call for start-ups, in February 2021.

We are currently looking for two different profiles of evaluators:

Big data experts: Individuals who have sound technical knowledge and deep expertise in Big Data or Data Science technologies and solutions, with competences on data analytics, pre-processing, and modelling with machine learning, deep learning, or optimization algorithms.

Business development experts: Individuals who have extensive entrepreneurship/investment experience. Current CEOs of successful startups, business angels, investors, and relevant mentors, are welcome to apply.

WHAT DO YOU GET IN RETURN?
The selected evaluators will be paid for their time and work in the evaluation process. A contract will be signed between the evaluator and the coordinator of the programme (COMMISSARIAT A L’ENERGIE ET AUX ENERGIES ALTERNATIVES (CEA)) as a representative of the consortium.

Please fill in the form on this page by 7th January 2021, noon. Please note that we will select a set of evaluators with an appropriate gender and country representation balance. more
