The document summarizes Jarmo Elukka Eskelinen's presentation at a conference on smart cities in Europe. It discusses how Helsinki has cultivated urban innovations by making public sector data open and available through initiatives like Helsinki Region Infoshare. This open data clearinghouse works to find, standardize, publish and utilize public data to foster innovation, efficiency and transparency among companies and communities. The presentation argues that for cities to truly be smart, public data and services must be made interoperable between different actors in the city.
The document summarizes the Ghent Living Lab project in Ghent, Belgium. The Ghent Living Lab aims to tap into the creative power of Ghent citizens and digital creatives by bringing people and creative digital forces together to develop solutions to challenges. It creates a network of citizens, digital agencies, researchers, and the local government to co-create products and services closer to end-users' needs using an interactive website. Maintaining stakeholder engagement and finding the right balance between technological and non-technological solutions will be ongoing challenges for the Ghent Living Lab.
The document summarizes a presentation about a living lab project at Villa Durazzo-Pallavicini park in Genoa, Italy. The park and its botanical garden were perceived as valuable but unsafe by citizens. To address this, a user-centered design process was used where users helped evaluate and design solutions. Proposed solutions included using QR codes and apps to provide information to users, a central database to manage data, improving the tourism website, and installing a video surveillance system to make the park safer. The goals were to improve access to nature for citizens and make the city's green spaces cleaner and safer places.
The document discusses a project in Fundão, Portugal, a small municipality struggling with problems related to its low population density, unemployment among young people with high education levels of 30%. The project aims to attract talent and investment through an open innovation strategy using a living lab, fab lab, co-working spaces, and revitalizing rural schools to rebuild the social and economic conditions in a low-cost and practical way. The key aspects that helped the project's success were its proximity, agility in prototyping solutions, and having political support for an open and transparent process.
The document discusses a project in Florence, Italy to create a smarter, city-wide wireless user experience. It outlines some of the challenges faced, including getting private businesses involved and developing a sustainable business model. The proposed strategy is to use the wireless network to promote new business models and offer a unique user experience with free content and apps. This would help boost online service and app adoption. The proposed solution involves formal partnerships between public bodies and private parties to provide a consistent wireless experience across the city while allowing for separate systems and content. There are still challenges around legal and business model issues.
The document discusses smart mobility solutions for cities. It describes how city mobility is a major issue as people have multiple transportation options but few ways to choose affordable and environmentally-friendly options with real-time information. It then outlines problems like traffic congestion and lack of integrated information systems. The proposed strategy is to integrate and aggregate and then disaggregate multi-channel transportation data from various sensors and sources in an open-source system. This would provide real-time information on traffic, parking, events and more to citizens. The solution aims to address specific groups' needs through crowd-sourcing and co-design.
This document summarizes a presentation given at the SCE2012 conference about a project called the Smart Square. The Smart Square is a virtual citizen community created by the municipality of Athens to promote citizen involvement in city governance and service codesign. It aims to improve citizen-city communication channels and make them more interactive. The key component is a mobile application called MySquare that allows citizens to create and participate in local digital discussion spaces about any city area or issue. The goal is to empower citizens, improve awareness and sense of belonging, and help prioritize needs in city service production.
Jesse Marsh gave a presentation on the human-oriented smart city projects of 14 major European cities. The Pecha Kucha format was used, with each city giving a short presentation on their strategies around open data, technical and social innovation, citizen engagement, and empowerment to create more human-centered smart cities. Representatives from the cities then provided further discussion and responded to issues raised by experts and the public audience.
Jon Kingsbury gave a presentation at a Smart City conference on the role of creativity and creative industries in Smart Cities. He discussed how creative industries can help cities by using data to experimentally test new ideas and gather feedback to build creative capacity. He argued the value of thinking about the "Creative Economy" more broadly than just specific industries. Kingsbury took questions on how creative industries can most powerfully contribute to networked cities and how cities can develop their creative abilities.
Roberto Grandi gave a presentation on the role of creativity and the creative industries in smart cities. He discussed how creativity can be an alternative way of thinking and a way to solve problems. He explained that creative environments that are open-minded and interdisciplinary can foster creativity. However, creative cities also face risks like gentrification and social divides if multidimensional strategies are not employed to encourage inclusion and capability building. Grandi argued that creativity needs to be extended beyond just culture to also influence social, political and economic areas, and that civic creativity where everyone contributes is important for sustainable city development.
