> I decide to talk to some fellow applicants and by cross-referencing data, we can identify quite a few identifier numbers of quite a few beneficiary companies, and we observe that there are projects much less innovative than "Moons of Darsalon" that have obtained much higher scores. It is strange that no unknown companies are observed; it is normal that most of the winners are experienced companies, but it is also normal that there is some newcomer. The vast majority of beneficiaries are former students of the 2 expert evaluators from the academic world or have had a professional relationship with the 2 experts from the professional world. It is also strange that all the scores obtained are multiples of 0.33, and considering the number of evaluators who judged the projects, it is mathematically impossible for these scores to come from calculating the average score of a 0 to 10 rating from each evaluator.

I am Spanish and sadly this does not surprise me. Spain would be a great place for software development: things like universal health care help in taking risks during development, but then the actual business activity difficulties make such projects die in the vine.

    The judges may have avoided evaluating the people they know, so that explains why the average is N/3 instead of N/4. This theoretically increase transparency, but in practice it doesn't fix the transparency problem too much.
