category within the interoperability cube describes different methods and tools used within the existing European Living Lab at all stages. Integration of the project in the Living Lab infrastructure: A full Living Lab service offering not only requires product and service development and evaluation methodologies but also a mechanism for the integration of the customers’ product or service into a Living Lab to provide it to the users. The efficient, transparent and smooth integration accomplished by the Living Lab provider is the key for trust and convenience of the customer. It also can work as a first product/service testing depending on the level of development (market launch testing). Co-creation: The core service of the Living Lab is to facilitate the co-creation of a product, service or application development. This co-creative product development process can be decomposed into four phases: Product Idea, Product Concept, Product Development, and Market Launch. For the four phases specific methods for user integration are assigned. Data preparation: To fulfil the customers’ expectations regarding the results and to reduce the complexity of the evaluated data, the Living Lab provider offers a standardised data preparation. The great advantage of the standardisation is the comparability with the results of other Living Labs. . 13.7 Supporting SME Innovation SMEs are by far the most important category of companies. Within the European Union about 23 million SMEs provide around 75 million jobs and represent 99% of all enterprises. Their role in the regional and national innovation system as creators of new products, services and markets and partners for larger companies is really crucial. As globalisation of markets and industries continues, these innovation systems become more and more open and cross-border. SMEs must be able to participate in international value networks in order to survive. Networking capabilities and competencies to engage in open innovation therefore must be enhanced. There is a need to introduce new solutions enabling SMEs participation into the innovation process. The Living Labs concept, based on ICT-based services and open innovation, offers the new organizational dimension, processes, services and ICT-infrastructures to improve SME competitiveness and innovation potential and to enable SME to become protagonist on the innovation process, through partnership building among themselves and in collaboration with supporting institutions, such as university research centres and regional development agencies. 13.8 Indicator Wrap-up A best Practices Assessment was conducted for selected Living Labs taking investigating the dimensions defined above as part of the CO-Llabs project. The goal was to provide benchmarks for other Living Lab in order to allow a self-positioning of Living Labs as part of a self-assessment. The Study should provide hints about the level of sustainability and to share good practices within ENoLL. The results are available as spider-web diagrams as presented in Figure 28. The project is co-funded by the ERDF Page 70 of 78
Figure 28: spider-web diagram The thresholds are ranging from 0 – 100 for every category. The value 0 means that a Living Lab has nothing specific installed or deployed in this category whereas 50 means that some specific measures has been taken. The value 100 in this context means that all requirements are fulfilled and implemented. Based on these descriptions the Living Labs can assess themselves accordingly from 0 up to 100. The description of the indicators are presented below: User Involvement Figure 29: User involvement Service creation Figure 30: Service Creation The project is co-funded by the ERDF Page 71 of 78
