The document discusses the concepts of smart cities and user-centric open innovation using living labs. It defines a smart city as one that uses information and communication technologies to efficiently address challenges related to development and resources through integrated solutions that satisfy citizen desires. Living labs are described as systems that facilitate efficient user involvement in co-creative need-finding and designing desirable products, services, and solutions to address development and resource issues. Examples provided include crowd desire prediction, smart traffic management, and smart energy management. The document concludes by noting opportunities for synergy between open user-centric innovation, smart cities, and experimental facilities.

3. What is a “Smart City” “… the concept of the "smart city" has been introduced as a strategic device to encompass modern urban production factors in a common framework and to highlight the growing importance of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs), social and environmental capital in profiling the competitiveness of cities” /Wikipedia City Governor has impressive IQ Excellent IT infra structure All city assets have RFID tags Many City-app’s in AppStore City servants replaced by avatars A City offering integrated ICT solutions that “cleverly” resolves D/R challenges, in citizen desireable ways 11 min drive-around to find a parking lot 25+ min/day in public lines a significant market of actors who share many needs in a complex, high-density and occasionally congested (D/R-challenging) environment with a wealth of opportunities

4. User-centric Open Innovation (LL) We want users to fill our network with content (and pay for IT) People do not know what kind of technology they need until they see IT We invited users to test our service but hardly anyone came (Co-)Creation with users is soon “standard-must”, since time-to-market and sustainaility are important Find and follow Internet “lead-users” today to discover tech. needs of tomorrow When addressing D/R challenges, dialogues with citizens are crucial to find good solutions - Living Lab - a system of expertise, methods, tools and information for context efficient involvement of users in open co-creative need-finding and design of desireable products, services and solutions
