The Promise of Living Labs


Using Living Labs as an approach to social innovation brings alot of promise and as one of the presenters showed at the COFISA Innovation Workshop the following should be considered:

- Skills Access
- Reusability
- Co-Innovation
- Acceptance
- Commercialisation
- End-User Drive

In the context of the Athlone Living Lab the above promises are key to ensure the emergence of social innovation for the Communities in Tension (CiTs).
