The REDI stakeholder meeting summarized the Regional Economic Development Initiative (REDI) and its goals to promote economic growth in Silicon Valley through public-private collaboration. REDI identified key industries like IoT, smart buildings, transportation, and health tech and formed action teams to develop strategies and commitments in areas like enhancing business connections, demonstrating new technologies, and accelerating innovation. REDI will continue convening stakeholders and action teams to finalize plans and achieve early successes in supporting these industries and marketing Silicon Valley as a center for innovation.
Value creation from open data growth faces several challenges, e.g; they risk to be too supply-driven, or that they lack of incentives for the re-use. This paper reports an ongoing research/programme on the stimulation role in an open data ecosystem to mitigate these concerns. First, we present the empirical roots of this role that can be drawn from several initiatives undertaken in different countries and trying to bypass the obstacles faced by potential open data re-users. We discuss the importance of a legal framework inductive to foster innovation and transnationality of the re-use. Then, we introduce the BE-GOOD programme which aims to develop new methods to build an open data ecosystem.

The Road to Renaissance initiative was the first comprehensive strategy developed to accelerate economic growth for the entire Detroit region.
The initiative was launched in 2006 by Business Leaders for Michigan (formerly Detroit Renaissance) and was based on extensive research and community input, including:
– Benchmarking 6 national & global regions
– Analyzing the region’s workforce & business strengths
– Reviewing 15 previous regional studies
– Obtaining input from 650 leaders/500 organizations
Final recommendations were released in 2007 with work continuing through 2011 and beyond. This is the final summary of our results.
The Canadian Trade Commissioner Service manages the Canadian Technology Accelerators (CTA) in New York, San Francisco & Silicon Valley, Boston, and Philadelphia, global clusters for technology and entrepreneurship. This initiative provides those Canadian start-ups in information and communication technology, digital and social media, gaming, clean technologies, and life sciences with access to unique resources and contacts that foster their international growth.
The CTAs make available free office space for three to six months where physical offices are located within existing business incubators. The CTAs help you to refine your business model, collect competitive intelligence, pursue key clients, access financing sources, and engage strategic partners.

- REDI is the regional convener of business, local government and community partners that is creating forums to accelerate job creation , innovation and business opportunities in health IT, agile development and manufacturing, transportation R&D and smart buildings
the chamber wants to position itself as the regional convener of business and community partners in these four opportunity areas
- REDI forums will define community challenges that business can help address in each of these opportunity areas while marketing the region as a center of innovation
--- how health IT can help connect patients to quality medical care and reduce costs
--- how contract manufacturers can connect to local business while reducing time to market
--- how transportation R&D can reduce congestion and promote safety
--- how smart technology can help buildings increase energy efficiency and reduce emission
Goals -- (expanded)
*Expand jobs and economic impact of the smart buildings industry in Silicon Valley by increasing deployment of smart building technologies into new and existing buildings in the region.
*Raise awareness of smart building technologies and benefits in the building industry and among the public to accelerate development of the market and technology adoption.
*Increase coordination and collaboration of organizations related to the smart buildings industry (e.g. trade associations, private companies, utilities, advocacy organizations, universities) to align and amplify impact, and reduce duplication of efforts.
Goals
Long-term goal: Make Silicon Valley a worldwide destination for Healthcare technology innovation.
Short-term goals:
Develop a forum to help entrepreneurs break into the healthcare market, including informing entrepreneurs of the healthcare problems that need to be solved and connecting them to hospitals.
Leveraging resources, such as data, to strengthen the Health Technology industry in Silicon Valley.
Helping hospitals gain access to the latest Health Technology ideas.
Action strategies to develop the catalyst include:
Do a scan of similar collaborative models in the area and elsewhere to gather design ideas and determine opportunities to leverage.
Draft a design model and review. Sign on official members.
Launch prototype “forum(s)”. Assess results, adapt forums and scale.
Action strategies to expand collaboration between entrepreneurs and health systems include:
Develop a forum, possibly through the Chamber, where entrepreneurs can meet with hospital representatives to understand what problems need to be solved.
Action strategies to accelerate innovation through access to data:
Identify examples of data agreements from other places and determine data that is available.
Identify team members and create a joint agreement among data source organizations and outline barriers.
Develop a shared platform and determine how to best use the data to aid the growth of the Health IT industry.
Action strategies market Silicon Valley as a center for Health IT innovation:
Define our current South Bay excellences (and commitment to innovation) and define our differentiators.
Market the catalyst.
Market Silicon Valley as a place for medical tourism.
The team determined that the purpose of the forum will be to provide a venue for startups to understand customers (e.g. institutions, systems, patients), and real-world barriers to execution, as well as for institutions/health systems to find solutions to healthcare problems. Currently, entrepreneurs develop products without knowing the needs of the industry, and also need support navigating the healthcare space, as well as validating their innovations. These industry needs became the basis for developing the pilot forum where entrepreneurs and hospital leads come together. Hospital leaders and the Silicon Valley chapter of Health 2.0, a group that brings together entrepreneurs, organizations and investors to provide mentorship, are partnering to launch this pilot forum.
forum will be to provide a venue for startups to understand customers (e.g. institutions, systems, patients), and real-world barriers to execution, as well as for institutions/health systems to find solutions to healthcare problems.
