LIVING LABS

“Hugely powerful yet poorly defined, living labs offer a set of alluring promises” 

‐ Evans & Karvonen

Page 4: 141104_Living Laboratory_Innovation Districts_MA

Living Laboratories  view actors (users) as active competent partners and domaine experts  (beyond participation, involvement and engagement). 

The Living lab is both an arena (an environment) and an approach ... designed to:

‐ Speed up the innovation process from idea to market ‐ Co‐create and improve innovative ideas‐ Investigate and create new business opportunities

LIVING LABS: WHAT?

Page 5: 141104_Living Laboratory_Innovation Districts_MA

LIVING LABS: WHY NOW?

“The urgent threat of climate change does not afford us the luxury of taking time to reach and apply effective solutions. As in a war effort, it’s necessary for all parties to work together expeditiously, in this case to develop ways of lowering carbon that are demonstrated to be acceptable and feasible in the real lives of those who need to adopt them or are affected by them.”

Salter and White CRC LCL 2013 

Page 6: 141104_Living Laboratory_Innovation Districts_MA

LIVING LABS: LOOK LIKE?

•Research – researching different aspects of the innovation process

•Corporate – a physical place where stakeholders (citizens) are invited to co‐create innovations

•Organisational – members of an organisation co‐creatively develop innovations

•Intermediary – different partners collaboratively innovate in a neutral arena

•Time limited – Living lab as a support for the innovation process in a project

INNOVATION DISTRICTS

“ ... geographic areas where leading edge anchor institutions and companies cluster and connect with start‐ups, business incubators, and accelerators ..... 

Instead of building isolated science parks, innovation districts focus extensively on creating a dynamic physical realm that strengthens proximity and knowledge spillovers.”

Katz et al

Page 12: 141104_Living Laboratory_Innovation Districts_MA

INNOVATION DISTRICTS: WHAT?

“Given the vast distinctions in regional economies, the form and function of innovation districts differ markedly across regions. Yet all innovation districts contain economic, physical, and networking assets. 

When these three assets combine with a supportive, risk‐taking culture they create an innovation ecosystem—a synergistic relationship between people, firms, and place  that facilitates idea generation and accelerates commercialisation.”

Page 13: 141104_Living Laboratory_Innovation Districts_MA

INNOVATION DISTRICTS: WHAT?

Economic Assets – firms, institutions andorganizations that drive, cultivate or support an innovation‐rich environment

Physical Assets – the public and privately owned spaces, buildings, open spaces, streets and other infrastructure designed to stimulate new connectivity, collaboration and innovation.

Networking Assets – the relationships between actors, such as individuals, firms and institutions that have the potential to generate, sharpen and accelerate the advancement of ideas.

Page 14: 141104_Living Laboratory_Innovation Districts_MA

INNOVATION DISTRICTS: WHY NOW?

“For all its power Silicon Valley has a great weakness, it's soul crushing urban sprawl.”

Paul Graham

INNOVATION DISTRICTS: LOOK LIKE?

Physically compact

Amenity‐rich

Central city core location or transit‐accessible

Mixed‐use‐ firms, research labs, and universities, retail, housing

Powered by clean energy

Wired for digital technology

Fuelled by caffeine
