TRANSCRIPT
Smart Cities asInnovation Ecosystems?- European response
Adviser, Innovation Systems, EuropeanCommission
Innovation?• Make things happen!
Sustainable innovation is full of disruptions!
Science based linear innovation is NOT mainstreamanymore!
HOW TO CREATE NEW???
• User-centric innovation• Open innovation• Systemic innovation• Experimental mash-up
Essential drivers
• connectivity• open• interaction• “organic”
• NON-controllable, only catalyzing possible
Diversity matters (MIT 2002)!

Prioritize Quadruple Helix Innovation
Government, Academia, Industry and Citizens collaborating together todrive structural changes far beyond the scope of any one organization
could achieve on it’s ownInvolve all stakeholders in quadruple helix to innovate and experiment in real world settings, in creating frictionless
innovation ecosystems

Create incentives to encourage Openness toInnovation and Experimentation
• We solve too many problems with taxes andpenalties, create incentives to encourageexperimentation and prototyping, not "perfectplanning for yesterday".
• Promote Successful innovators and entrepreneursas Hero’s
• Change our European culture where honourablefailure is seen as a badge of honour :"failing fast,but small"
Drive Intersectional Innovation
• The breakthroughs happen at the boundaries ofculture, domains, nations and technologies
• Prioritize support for innovation which targetintersectional, disruptive and architecturalinnovation
• Create a de Medici effect to enable a newEuropean Innovation renaissance
Horizon 2020• Commission proposal for a 80 + billion euro research and innovation
funding programme (2014-20)• Part of proposals for next EU budget, complementing Structural Funds,
education, etc.• A core part of Europe 2020, Innovation Union & European Research Area:
• Responding to the economic crisis to invest in future jobs and growth• Addressing peoples’ concerns about their livelihoods, safety and
environment.• Strengthening the EU’s global position in research, innovation and
technology
• Three main focus areas: Industrial leadership (LEIT), Socieoeconomicchallenges and Research Excellence
Paradigm change is REAL!
• Closed innovation Open innovation Open innovation 2.0• Dependency Indepencency Interdependency• Subcontracting Cross-licensing Cross-fertilisation• Solo Cluster Ecosystem• Linear Linear, leaking Mash-up• Linear subcontracts Triple Helix Quadruple Helix• Planning Validation, pilots Experimentation• Control Management Orchestration• Win-lose game Win-win game Win more-Win more• Box thinking Out of the Box No Boxes!• Single entity Single Discipline Interdisciplinary• Value chain Value network Value constellation
Conclusions
• The paradigm shift to Open Innovation 2.0 is real
• Essential to find positive collisions to create new markets
• Clusters are not enough to create new; ecosystems needed!
• Experimentation and prototyping in real world settings especiallyimportant in areas close to societal changes and challenge
• Experience from first calls: Too little emphasis on impact
• JOIN OPEN INNOVATION 2.0 CONFERENCE 7.-9.6.2015 inESPOO!
