A co-creation environment to design and create prototypes through actions that stimulate open innovation by means of idea competitions, overcoming considered challenges, guidance for FGPs and FMPs, identifying opportunities and setting up start-ups.
To do so, we have developed a LivingLab canvas to support you while undertaking your projects.
That which is pursued or accomplished
Consider the top three problems; are there any alternatives?
Consider different achieved solutions
What does our value or production proposal need?
Infrastructure, equipment, financing, etc.
A clear convincing message that explains why we select ourselves, and what can we solve for others
What key activities do you measure?, do they tell you how?, chronogram
Overhead and running costs of customers, production, distribution, employees, services
Is it social, environmental, economic? Any related regulations
To divide anyone interested in your business into segments according to shared characteristics: it will focus on strategies, calibrate responses, insist on tactics, etc.
To certain brands, products, etc. They also encompass incentives and copyright
To whom your objective addresses, who the most important customers are, pioneers, etc.
Those people or organisations affected by the activities performed and the decisions made
Count them, what are they like? Why do they prefer to pay it? How does each source of income contribute to the total?
LivingLab Business Model Canvas
(LIAISON)
LivingLab became known in the 1990s to describe the use of cooperative societies. This concept is mainly applied to ICT, but also to other knowledge areas. Since their creation at the MIT labs in Massachusetts (USA), it has been considered a tool to help incorporate users (citizens) into innovation processes by placing them in a more centralised position (i.e. user-centred innovation). This approach allows new spaces to appear for knowledge interaction and exchange, and brings about a major change in paradigm in collaboration among various subjects of action in an open and crossed innovation scenario.
These are Open spaces for Experimental learning, by understooding an open environment as an uncontrolled environment which users are selected to present a specific behaviour induced against an experiment or prototype of a product or service. As the interaction is open, the products and services included in the LivingLab are not end products, but are submitted to continuous improvement with time because end users participate.
In Europe, the LivingLab methodology is validated and verified by Botnia LivingLab www.Ltu.se/cdt from Sweden, and is adopted as a standard by the European Network of Living Labs (ENOLL) , based on these principles: value, influence, sustainability, openness and realism.
The main LivingLab components are: ICT and infrastructure, administration, partners and users, research and approach, of which Innovation is the intersection of them all.
