• Demand for innovative services enabled by ICT• Participate actively in the process stimulating service innovation enabled by
ICT• Act as first “buyers” and “consumers” of service innovation
Companies Research
Territorial Ecosystems
• the territory (local government and public bodies) – demanding and buying service innovation
• people in the territory (as end users) – demanding and buying service innovation
• companies - delivering service innovation enabled by technical innovation
• research centers and universities - delivering technological innovation
All these actors systematically work together to set up, nurture and advance the Territorial Ecosystem for Innovation
Territorial Labs
• Living labs extended to the whole territory as means to push service innovation enabled by technological innovation
• Stable pool of users and infrastructure
• where the service provider can be close to the service consumer
• aiming at validating the applicability of innovative technology, organizational, business, market aspects, actual adoption by end-users
• as means to merge service innovation demand and technological innovation supply
• as the fundamental means to merge research, companies, public bodies, and people
Territorial Labs and ERB
• Research: results tested in realistic settings
• Education: hands-on experience for students in Masters and PhD courses and/or during summer/winter schools
• Business: market tests, comparison among alternative business models, assessment of the impact on organizations
• Active aging
• Mobile Territorial Lab
• Tunnels for smart mobility and energy savings

• because it provides the tools, infrastructures and services to turn concepts
and potentials into reality
• It is what IS AND WILL BE SHAPING our understanding of QoL
• through new-generation
• through emerging research areas, e.g., Future Internet, Embedded Intelligence, Social & Human Computation, ...
Vision: ICT for Quality of Life (cont.)
• “Person Centric Quality of Life” along two dimensions:
• individual dimension (personal needs, individual life styles, etc.)
• social dimension (person “embedded” in a social environment)
• A “data driven” approach to Interconnection of services through
• massive individual and territorial data sets (available thanks to agreements
with regional authorities and industrial partners)
• Territorial Labs where new services are experimented
