consortium members
2. IMAGINE Living Labs as a source of innovation
support infrastructure
3. Novel comprehensive IMAGINE methodology
supported by ICT solution
4. IMAGINE solution’s compatibility with other
enterprise software solutions and applicability to
different industry domains

External environment
Opportunities Threats

data volumes & ecosystems

unwillingness to adapt new technologies
