In December 2016, MFI signed a memorandum of understanding with the National Meteorological Service of Argentina, in partnership with Météo-France, in order to set a frame for future collaborations. These were not long to come since a first contract was signed a few days later for MFI to provide its Early Warning & Public Weather Services system: METEOFACTORY®. With this project, Argentina’s met service has set several challenging goals: raise its public profile, improve the quality of its warnings and establish an ambitious applied production program for 6 major economic fields (agriculture, energy, marine, transportation, tourism and medias). The first phase of the project mainly consisted in better understanding the organization and the technical environment of Argentina’s met service. Therefore, MFI’s experts carried out several onsite surveys meeting local staff, visiting their facilities and observing their work methods. A specific workshop was also organized with representatives of the agricultural and the marine sectors in order to fully grasp the expectations of these end-users in terms of services and products provided by the national met service. The project is now entering a more operational phase with the assembly, on MFI’s premises in Toulouse, of the technical platform that will underlie the implementation of METEOFACTORY®. Factory acceptance tests as well as training are planned for September, while shipment of all equipment and onsite installation are expected before the end of 2017. |

MFI in India with PROMETEO & BUSINESS FRANCE |
|
|
 |
|
As an active member of the PROMETEO organization, MFI participated last June to a symposium held by the India Meteorological Department (IMD) and organized in collaboration with BUSINESS FRANCE. This event aimed at promoting French expertise and solutions in the fields of meteorology, hydrology and environment. During the 3-day event, MFI’s sales engineers were able to meet IMD officials and representatives from the main meteorological services in the area such as Bangladesh, Bouthan, Maldives, Nepal, or Sri Lanka. A great opportunity to sow the seeds of future collaborations. |
