This expression of interest supports the launch by the Finnish Presidency of a European Network of Living Labs on 20th November 2006, as a step towards a new European Innovation System (EIS). The initiative aims to set up a new European Innovation Infrastructure where users play an active role in the innovation and can influence this to better serve their needs. A European Network of Living Labs is a business-citizens-government partnership. At the same time a Living Labs Open Innovation Community was launched to bring together all interested individuals for information sharing, dialogue and co-creation.
Thank you in advance for your contributions!
