Moreover, most of this material has been made available on the APOLLON portal. In fact, after the initial version of the website that was finalised by 6th April 2010 by WP 7/IBBT; ESoCE-net, in collaboration with WP7, has acted as the main editor and content inspiration for the whole portal web refining the structure, the logic of the proposed documents and the articles published. This activity has included the validation of inputs and contribution from all APOLLON partners, in particular the WP Leaders, and the redefinition of the core SMEs section. Furthermore other updates have been done on the website, distinguishing between the global and the two dedicated sections for SMEs and Partners (Overview section). Finally specific activities, mainly including the described events, have been carried out achieving a good level result of partner’s involvement, with good results.

D6.3 Report on Networking Activities & Workshops
1 Introduction As described in the Description of Work (DoW), on M29 WP6 Dissemination & Sustainability workpackage has to present the Deliverable 6.3, “APOLLON Report on Networking Activities & Workshops�, in which activities performed during the whole project are described and documentation of outcomes for further dissemination is provided. To better monitor and assess the progress towards the achievement of the dissemination and sustainability objectives, WP6 Team has decided to prepare a report on networking activities and workshops every six months. This approach has a double aim to act as internal use tool for all project partners and for the European Commission review. This report, as available up to M30 (end of the project) and in its interim issue for M18 project review, brings together results from overall project extent. Thus, the present deliverable refers either to every six-month period of the project, from M1 to M30 describing all the activities done up to April 2012 to disseminate APOLLON results, involve partners and building consensus and provides documentation of outcomes for further dissemination.

D6.3 Report on Networking Activities & Workshops community at large in relation to the CIP ICT PSP call on Open innovation for Future Internet-enabled services in Smart Cities and for the Future Internet Public-Private-Partnership (FI PPP). The European Network of Living Labs (ENoLL) welcomes the Commission’s initiatives for the concrete implementation of Future Internet technologies in cities, regions and countries. ENoLL stresses that the Commission’s objective of “smart infrastructures” that bring economic and social benefits to all citizens is not likely to be reached through an exclusively technology-driven process. This is why living labs, that enable open and user-driven experiments and tests and Social Innovation, are the necessary complement to technical test-beds for Future Internet technologies. Living labs are open platforms to engage user communities as contributors to innovations. They provide real-life user needs definition testing facilities offered by local Public-Private-Partnerships with People. Together, the ENoLL members support the "Innovation Lifecycle" for all actors in the system: end-users, SMEs, corporations, public sector and academia (http://www.openlivinglabs.eu). During the event ENoLL, the European Commission and the Spanish Presidency had publicly announced the 4th wave of new Living Lab members. Thus, ENoLL currently coordinates 212 benchmarked European living labs.

EVENTS: THE INTERNATION CONFERENCE ENGINEERING – 21 – 23 JUNE 2010 – LUGANO
ON
CONCURRENT
The ICE conference (http://www.ice-conference.org/) is a premier forum to enable practitioners, researchers as well as tool vendors to present, demonstrate and share the results and achievements of their work in the broad domain of Concurrent Enterprising. The Concurren Enterprising theme combines the paradigms of Concurrent Enterprising and Extended/Virtual Enterprising within the Collaborative Environment for Sustainable Innovation theme (intended in the broad sense of new green technologies but also new organizational and collaborative methods and new ways to sell in the market).
3.1.6.1 MEETING OBJECTIVES, ORGANISATION AND EXECUTION The conference was targeted to a new wave of innovation, grand challenges highlight new user collaborations, new organisational forms, cross-domain dimensions of interoperability, interoperability technologies being accessible to all organizations and users and the need to take into account the concerns of many small developers and users scattered across Europe and the world. It was organized within its three main streams of presentation and posters from the open call for papers, sessions with scientific papers, workshops, demonstrations and training sessions.

ATTENDANCE
Around 150/160 participants attended the 2010 edition of the ICE Conference, coming from Industry, IT Industry, Living Lab and scientific and academia domains at both EC and National level.
3.1.6.1.2
OUTCOMES
By presenting its lesson learnt the APOLLON Project played the role of best example for Living Lab methodology adoption among the ”Living Lab and Enhance SME’s innovation in Europe” and ”Fostering SME Innovation and Entrepreneurship in Cities, Rural Areas and Regions” themes. APOLLON was introduced then as one of the key projects to support entrepreneurship and business innovation and its cross-border living lab approach was discussed and deployed with the help of a SWOT analysis within European Living Lab. Conclusions from this study were that networks mostly have been established in bottom-up processes from individual initiatives. There is a lack of clear defined rules and procedures within the living labs network that determine how partners should collaborate with each other. Also, better defined services, business models and re-usability of processes and procedures needed for improved impact for various stakeholders. Additionally the role of Living Lab in Smart Cities was presented: the APOLLON project contribution was again central with the experiences reported by varous pilots conducted in several cities within the Energy Efficiency domain theme.

3.2.1 GENERIC EVENT: FUTURE INTERNET CONFERENCE WEEK – 13 - 17 DECEMBER
2010, GHENT 3.2.1.1 MEETING OBJECTIVES, ORGANISATION AND EXECUTION One of the main objectives of the conference and around which the APOLLON project was promoted was “Smart Cities”, as centres for user driven open innovation, using Future Internet technology in a userfriendly way to enable a truly knowledge-based society. The use of Living Lab Methodology acted as a suitable tool to identify successful concepts and enhance the innovation process and the creation of new public services in domains as health, mobility, environmental monitoring or energy management. The workshop underlined also the centrality of Smart Cities, able to provide that critical mass of experimental businesses, local governments and citizens as end-users of advanced applications that is required for testing of Future Internet technologies. The Workshop was organized within the European Network of Living Lab coordination. A specific stand was reserved to the APOLLON project in the exhibition area during the entire week. The stand showed the APOLLON presentation, acted as APOLLON dissemination material point and, served as info point area for all the participants interested in having more information about the cross border pilot activities.
A specific ENoLL Workshop was held on the 13rd and was dedicated to domain network building topic. The session discussed also the status of the APOLLON Methodology, the benchmarking of the Living Lab performances and involvement and the cross border activities (and challenges) for the pilot running step.

D6.3 Report on Networking Activities & Workshops
Furthermore, the 13rn December session was a good occasion to discuss about the APOLLON Methodology, the cross border pilot activation and run and especially the domain networks development. The session gained particularly from an interactive session where the participants were requested to provide ideas and brainstorm around the thematic network theme. Needs and expectations on the thematic network building underlined, at the end, the importance and the centrality of the APOLLON pilots. These pilots were recognized in fact in having also the important role of future domain network kernels. This approach can be considered an important achievement and a good concept in common understanding of this future expected project result, useful for the involved project partners, the community and any interested stakeholder. It has emerged also that the domain networks will act in the specific four domains and will require e specific methodology to be refined from the global (under developing) APOLLON Methodology. Finally these domain networks will act as a specific community able to drive the right “wave” for involved Living Labs and SMEs. The “surfer community” metaphor was perfect in line to explain how the domain networks will help the interested organizations to spot the correct “wave” gathering together the excellence of that domain in the exact moment a specific occasion arises. Typical and successful example of this approach can be considered the GAINS initiative, and how it helps SMEs to leverage Living Lab to direct accede to the market (“catching the big wave”).

3.2.7.1.1
ATTENDANCE
More than 80 participants attended this year the ESoCE Industry Forum 2010. Around 55/60 participants attended instead the “Living Labs and Reality Checks: New Opportunities For SMEs” workshop.
3.2.7.1.2
OUTCOMES
The topic of the conference on “User Driven Open Innovation for SMEs in Advanced Service-product development” went much beyond every expected result and was pushed to its most refined synthesis: “a new Policy for Innovation”.
A new wave was launched then with the proclamation of the “You can learn to Innovate” Manifesto: foundation as collaborative strategy for a new Innovative Europe based on Living Labs. Living Labs, as pilots for the European future development, are recognized as one of the strongest emerging opportunities for SMEs in the European panorama. A new flourish era will emerge from this groundwork, able to drive Europe much beyond the exit of the crisis: an era where -
-
Everyone (not only engineering) can contribute to the Innovation cycle; Delivery innovation is as important as the creation of innovation
-
The us of it infrastructure is important in order to make actors not only “user of technology” but “innovator with the new technology”
-
Innovation is a culture allowing education and innovative systems to finally complete talk each other.
This launch was rebated and reinforced during the Workshop session. APOLLON was one of the main actors within the Open Innovation Platform framework and the event resulted in an important stage for the cross border pilot experiments in Leveraging Living Lab approach and Methodology and a strong dissemination opportunity.

D6.3 Report on Networking Activities & Workshops The purpose was to bring together ICT specialists to debate on the impact and role of digital technologies on Culture, in a web 2.0 era. Through live demonstrations, presentations and debates, the workshop tried to answer the following questions: Can digital technologies bring a new image to Culture? Can they help us have a different look on the historical patrimony of our cities and villages? Can they actually help to better spread knowledge? The workshop was a perfect opportunity to present the APOLLON project, namely the three e-Participation pilots from Antwerp, Manchester and Issy-les-Moulineaux, all the more that all of them are involved in the cultural domain.

3.3.4.1.3
OUTCOMES
The workshop was a good opportunity to disseminate the Apollon project at a regional/local level and raise awareness of the importance and benefits of European projects for the population. This was a great achievement, because there is a lack of communication and information towards the local/regional/national audience concerning EC-funded programs, which makes it difficult for such projects to be understood and appreciated at their true value. The workshop revealed that the development of new technologies allows us to take a fresh look at the historical heritage of our towns, and not only to that of our major cities. All communities have a story to tell, some landmark places to protect and the desire to share the collective knowledge of the community in a best possible way. However not all these communities have the financial means to invest in expensive programs of Research & Development. The relevance of the workshop was proved by the high interaction level between the speakers and the audience and the large number of questions arising after each presentation. According to a satisfaction survey among 60 participants, 75 percent of them considered the workshop satisfactory, while 25 percent thought it was excellent. Mayor André Santini closed the workshop, hailing the European Commission’s initiative with regard to the calls for proposals, which offer new perspectives and opportunities for small cities to put in practice their ideas, with a strong involvement of big IT players and the SME sector.

D6.3 Report on Networking Activities & Workshops SMEs are an essential actor for developing future internet technologies and that the APOLLON project provides for them a dedicated platform for testing and accessing new market in cross border living lab pilots (whose network achieves now up to 274 Members after the 5th wave). This concept (and consequently the APOLLON position) was reinforced by one of the conclusion raised during the interactive session stating that testbeds and Living Labs in their role of matching partners for projects or proposals are as essential as the technical ideas behind such proposals; these technical ideas should originates from SMEs where the APOLLON play an important role in providing them innovative services and methodology for testing / accessing new markets.
Among the themes discussed the workshop addressed the following key aspects related to APOLLON and cross-border methodology in Living Lab: -
How can we methodologically and practically integrate the Living Lab concepts into the Future Internet experimental process?
-
What are the priorities for future work on integrating Future Internet testbeds and Living Labs methodologies?
Methodology focused on the need to studying the whole system, not just the components. From a practical point of view the importance of engaging the city officials (i.e. in the IT and tourism departments) was essential for the sustainability of the project after the co-financing stops. In such context it was envisaged how essential was to designate specific representative for each city but, at the same time, that it is not an easy job to liaise with them. The discussion about priorities was related to the problem of having to identify all the partners at the proposal phase, whereas more suitable ones may be discovered after the project has started. A better strategy could be to divide the project into phases and re-assess the partners for each phase as the project develops. This more flexible approach would allow testbeds and Living Labs to match partners to the stakeholder priorities at the right time. It was also mentioned that the technical ideas behind the proposals should originate from SMEs and that the need of focusing on what new city services can bring to the citizen to ensure that end users become involved make it easier to achieve the subsequent sustainability.

The Workshops presented the process and the results from the APOLLON Living Lab Domain Network establishment and, starting from the description of the charters of these Domain Networks, provided examples of potential experimentation and pilots (as per the case presented in the second session) to be run in these domains. The workshop addressed the establishment of Domain Living Lab Networks based on the experience of cross border collaboration pilots and presented best cases of Living Lab active in the domain giving example of services and support available to SMEs. The workshop contributed also in illustrating how the Domain Living Lab Networks mission consists in generating value through members’ interaction, sharing and co-creation and how these Domain Networks allow all players to launch “new initiatives and transform social capital into business and make available all the resources and assets”. In such context individuals and SMEs took its part up in the innovation process and achieved the above vision by sharing: Innovation Opportunities, Research Challenges and Resources (both technology infrastructures and Human Resources). During the ESoCE Industry Forum 2011 the APOLLON methodology for cross border Living Lab collaboration was also presented within the ”discipline in service for innovation” and ”Policy for business and job creation” themes.

OUTCOMES
The APOLLON presents its results (at pilot, Domain Network, methodology and Community level) to a wide audience of different Communities and projects including Eurocities. In the 1 day and half event APOLLON is in fact playing the key role of driver for the whole programme and is representing the concrete experience of Living Lab approach applied to cross border experience in the real Domains of eHelath, Energy-Efficiency, Manufacturing and eParticipation and Media (characterized by high level of ICT adoption). To reinforce APOLLON preminence in the audience four parallel sessions are organized during the whole event with specific project result presentations per domain plus permanent stands running demo, video and presentations for the complete duration of the sessions. These parallel sessions divided per domain illustrates also the Domain Networks transferred to EnoLL and the way the heritance of the APOLLON Project is transferred for continuity (in the current pilot and future experimentations). These parallel sessions acted also as Domain specific events for final APOLLON Period. The organization result in a high impact for the project demo of cross-border collaboration results in Living Lab as well as the perfect stage (with ENoLL interaction) for the launch of its main final results (APOLLON Domain Networks, APOLLON Market Place, Methodology, platform for SMEs involvement).

Tel: +46 920492091, Fax: +46 920492849, Email: anna.stahlbrost@ltu.se Abstract: In the last years there has been an increasing number of Living Labs throughout Europe, which are gradually forming a vibrant and still growing community. Several Living Lab networks have been set up on the European, the regional, and the national levels which mainly exchange high-level principles and best practices for individual Living Lab set-up and implementation. This paper focuses on the next steps that these networks must take in order to support SMEs for innovation and gaining access to new markets. The paper presents a methodology framework for cross-border living labs networks supporting SMEs based on network management, which uses results from four cross-border living labs networking experiments in four different settings. The methodology identifies and addresses key challenges for cross-border living labs networking in each setting. The paper presents initial results of methodology development and discusses various challenges in applying the methodology framework to the specific context of homecare and independent living solutions.

Abstract: During the last years, the concept of Living Labs as environments of user driven and collaborative innovation has received much attention. Until recently, collaboration and networking between single living labs has not been much of an issue. The APOLLON project has now extended the concept of single living labs to cross-border networks of living labs aiming to support SMEs innovation and access to international markets. APOLLON demonstrates the opportunities of cross border living labs to support SMEs in four pilots in four different domains. This paper focuses in particular on methods, tools and guidelines to support cross-border collaboration between living labs and with SMEs. We explain the methodology that has been developed to support collaboration in initiating, planning and establishing cross border networks of living labs within APOLLON, and provide some initial results on how the methodology has supported the collaboration process. The paper analyses the collaboration processes and collaboration needs and bottlenecks, and the methods that have been applied to overcome collaboration bottlenecks.
Living Labs – Real-World Experiments to Support Open Service Innovation. eChallenge2011. Fireze, Italy Ståhlbröst, A., and Bergvall-Kåreborn, B. 2011 Abstract: In today’s competitive and dynamic market it is of vital importance for organizations to innovate their processes, products and services to survive. One emerging concept that assists these demands is theopen service innovation approach that strives to open up organisational borders to support a continuous outflow and inflow of innovations. In this paper the aim is two-folded, firstly we aim to explore how a Living Lab approach withreal-world tests can contribute in open innovation processes and secondly we aim to identify important aspects an organisation aiming to implement the concept needs to grapple with. In our study users tested and experimented with energy meters and energy visualisation tools in their home for 6 months with the aim to further develop the innovation. We have found that by applying realworld experimentation users contributed to the innovation in four different dimensions. We also found that an open innovation approach requires an organisation that is communicative which entails strategies and structures to support that role.
Ethical issues raised by the new orientations in ergonomics and living labs. Work, 41, 5259-5265 Barcenilla, J. & Tijus, C. (2012) Abstract: User Experience Theory (UXT) provides us with criteria for designing products and technical systems for everyday activities (playing, learning, working...) so as to satisfy users. Living Labs (LL), are plateforms used for the design and evaluation of technical systems. As such, they constitute tools that bring to this process some constraints. However these constraints have to be articulated to the UXT. In other words, UXT should specify the place, the role and function LL should play in the design of new products, how it should contribute to satisfying UX, and how the methods and techniques should be conceived or borrowed from other disciplines. UXT also raises ethical issues: impartiality (independent, public, replicable) of research models in the context of economical constraints (dependant, private, secret APOLLON ICT PSP Project

D6.3 Report on Networking Activities & Workshops prototypes) and of industrial pressure, the use of intrusive and persuasive techniques, even with the prior informed consent of participants, ergo-marketing, deontology codes, the use of specific participants, belonging of an UX innovative solution, confidentiality with ICT, and so on. Because the UX, as well as LL literature, have shown little concerns for ethical considerations, till now, we define LL-UX ethical issues as a new research topic, and we list a number of problems to be solved in order to have an ethical LL-UX methodology for open innovation.
Les living labs : théorie, méthodes, pratiques et technologies cognitives 52ème Congrès de la Société Française de Psychologie, 7-9 september 2010, Lille Barcenilla, Javier (2lp/etic, Université de metz), Tijus, Charles (Lutin) Abstract: Living Lab methodology, which involves a network of real people with rich experiences, is a new way of dealing with community-driven innovation for sensing, prototyping, validating and refining complex solutions in multiple and evolving real-life contexts [1]. However, the development on living labs must take into account some factors that may lead to success or failure of their objectives while interacting with partners or conducting experiments. On the other hand, Living Lab methodologies must also consider new ethical issues raised by the tripartite interaction between citizens (users), scientists (researchers) and industrials (PMEs). This paper is about these Living Labs challenges and ethical issues in the context of Open Innovation.

With this new approach all the information flows quicker and more accurate from the different partners upon the direct responsibility of WP leaders. The APOLLON web site look closer to the need and the status of the project itself, giving outside a more true and real representation of the current status of the pilot experiences, and contributing to attract more interested supporting partners as well as increase the dissemination of APOLLON results.
6 Partners involvement Communities need a core group of members in order to be kept alive and active. To this end, the APOLLON community started in November with 58 Organizations – the Supporting Partners that have supported APOLLON since its inception, during the proposal stage and which have signed the “Letter of Support” for collaboration once the project is funded. In a dynamic way, all along the project life, communities were periodically approached by the leaders of the domain specific experiments and also through the WP6 specific SMEs workshop and activities. The additional Supporting members engaged by all partners were expected thus to constitute the dynamic community core members.

D6.3 Report on Networking Activities & Workshops In addition to the Supporting Partners, APOLLON have established another category of partners who are willing to directly access and contribute to the pilot activities of a Specific Domain. The two paragraphs below report the final status of the engagement process for both Supporting and Associate Partners.
6.1.1 SUPPORTING PARTNERS APOLLON strives to be an open project in which participation with all stakeholders is highly important. Therefore the APOLLON has already established a large Living Labs basis by not only having the key Living Labs as a core-partner but also by involving a large number of supporting partners. At the end of M12 (October 2010), 76 organisations throughout Europe have signed a letter of support, committing to one or several vertical domain focuses. Each of these partners is already quite active in the domain of Living labs, user driven development and open innovation. In total the supporting partner related to the APOLLON project are 92 organizations up to M12. At Project period M24 (November 2011) 133 organizations were actually composing the APOLLON Supporting Partners sub-community with an average grow trend in the last period around 45%. At the current period report (April 2012 – M30) up to 154 organizations were composing the APOLLON Supporting Community (with an additional grow tren on the previous period of about 15%). The following graphic shows an overview of the overall Supporting Partner composition.

D6.3 Report on Networking Activities & Workshops
Of these organisations, we have 81 Living Labs, 48 SMEs, 3 Government Bodies, 17 Research Centres and Universities and 5 Industries (Large Enterprises, Association) belonging to 39 different countries. As reported in Deliverable 6.2 (see chapter 6, Key Indicator n° 2), the Dissemination Team aimed at engaging 110 Supporting Partners. During the coming periods, through the dissemination material, APOLLON’s portal, events and workshops organized, the APOLLON project reached more that the 21 required partners. This was done gradually according to the development of the project. The partner level to be achieved by M6 period was 42 organizations. To engage Supporting Partners it was created a specific “Supporting partners” section in the Portal, which main objective is to attract new ones during project life, by stressing their benefits to be registered in order to join the community, and become then active and connected upon their own domain interests. Moreover, the “Letter of Support” has been provided also on-line to new interested Organizations, to be fulfilled and sent back to APOLLON project office. In addition, the updated list of “Current Supporting partners” was made accessible in the specific Portal section.

6.1.2 ASSOCIATE PARTNERS As per M6, 19 organisations (0 at the project kick-off) from 7 European Countries are in the process of becoming Associate Partners. Some of them still have to sign the Letter of Support but these stakeholders have already decelerated their interest of becoming Associate Partner to WP leaders.
6.1.3 SUPPORTING PARTNERS AND ASSOCIATE PARTNERS STRATEGY All along the project life, communities was periodically approached by the leaders of the domain specific experiments and also through the above mentioned WP6 specific SMEs workshop and activities. The rationale was to continuously working with the community in order to improve the participants and enlarge the network, providing a large impact and disseminating the Living Lab cross border approach and APOLLON methodology. The role of the partners is with this point of view in: -
-
Participating in dissemination events (conferences, workshops) Participating in specific hands-on workshops organised by the Work Package Leaders
-
Further disseminate the APOLLON project results towards their stakeholders
-
Participating in the establishment of the European thematic Living Lab networks
-
-
Act as an access point to local SMEs, large enterprises and government
Collaborating in new thematic proposals and value propositions

News from the APOLLON Project – 3rd issue - May 2011 http://www.apollon-pilot.eu
Dear APOLLON Supporting Partner,
Here’s the third edition of the APOLLON Newsletter, first issue for this year with news and update information on the Project. APOLLON has successfully entered 2011 and has started is second year: APOLLON pilots are now officially achieving their executive phase and interesting results are expected within the four thematic domains (Energy/Efficiency, Homecare, Manufacturing and e-Participation).
The maturity phase of the project has allowed also the launch of a new Initiative: the SME Service Window. The Window is dedicated to all the SMEs within the APOLLON project interested in the services stemming from the Living Lab and SMEs cross-border pilot experimentations.
http://www.apollon-pilot.eu/
http://www.apollon-pilot.eu/SMEs
APOLLON Pilot activities and results In the e-Participation domain APOLLON is piloting an integrated experiment dealing with the role of convergent media, social networking and the user engagement associated with it. Whether it be the discovery of a page of Issy’s history using smart-phones, 3D models, QR codes and cross-media, the covering by web-reporters of Manchester’s Central Library renovation or the creation of a serious game to raise young visitors’ interest in the Antwerp museum of contemporary art, the purpose is to encourage citizens’ involvement in the life of their city, based on a cross-border integrated approach. For more information you can join thematic domain workshop “Culture 2.0” in Issy-les-Moulineaux (24 June). APOLLON ICT PSP Project

D6.3 Report on Networking Activities & Workshops The eManufacturing pilot evaluates the use of cross-border networks of Living Labs to improve the collaboration and business amongst SMEs. Technically it was realized by the usage of a middleware prototype for device integration (MDI) with the execution of two use cases namely the implementation of an energy monitoring use case at the premises of the supporting SME Imeguisa and the implementation of an use case for asset viewing at the premises of the supporting SME CENI. Especially the core partner Ydreams did a great job by taking care of the accurate installation of MDI for the Portuguese SMEs. Actually the eManufacturing stakeholders are intensively working together with the colleagues from WP1 and move on with the identification, evaluation and adoption of several methodologies which should support the cross-boarder business generation as well as execution.
The Energy Efficiency vertical experiment is clustering four running local Living Lab projects in four countries dealing with Energy efficiency in general and Smart metering in particular: the Energy Pilot in Sweden, the Pilot for real-time in Finland, the Amsterdam Smart City in the Netherlands and the Lisbon Energy Pilot in Portugal. Each of these projects is independently investigating how smart metering technology can be used in the most efficient way and creates behavioural change. The goal is to validate the outcomes of these projects on a broader scale by using a common research benchmark and, by doing so, enhance the scalability of Living Lab research.
The Homecare and Independent Living vertical domain is assessing the use of remote gateway and sensor-based systems in various contexts and markets. To this extent it clusters four Living Labs that focus on Homecare and Independent Living applications, services and technologies within this field. The objective of this vertical experiment is to provide a “lessons learned� in transferring or setting-up cross border Homecare and Independent Living Living Lab projects. This is resulting in (1) specific information results related to the impact of remote gateway and sensor-based systems on the daily practices of people, and (2) a setting of requirements and guidelines for setting up such cross-border projects.
For more information on APOLLON pilots and experimentation results of its cross-border methodology in Living Lab, we kindly invite you to attend the Bled Conference (12-15 June).
The APOLLON Project is setting up Business Oriented Thematic Domain Networks.
The Objective of these Thematic Domain Networks is to enable cross border collaboration in specific Domains for specific service development for the market Take-Up, by supporting its members in: Identifying business Opportunities
Contributing to consortium formation for cross border pilot (match making of assets and actors)
To this extent:
APOLLON Project is expecting to facilitate interaction among interested Living Labs starting from the discussions and work that will be done during the coming 2011 edition of the ICE Conference (www.ice-conference.org - Aachen - Germany 20-22 June 2011)

D6.3 Report on Networking Activities & Workshops The APOLLON project will explore cross-border collaboration of living labs to support SME innovation on a dedicated session on 21 June 2011 afternoon. This session discusses the framework of methodologies to support cross-border living labs networking and collaboration, the evaluation of cross-border collaboration, and the sustainability of such collaborative networks.
Dedicated wiki pages (to gather the open contribution of interested individuals and organizations to co-create the vision, mission and governance of these thematic networks communities) were created on the Ami@Work online Community Web Portal. http://www.ami-communities.eu/wiki/Thematic_LL_Networks
You contribution for the definition of Thematic Domain Network charters and for the description of the information of the resources and assets which can be shared among these networks is welcome
Coming Opportunities for APOLLON SMEs and Living Labs: The first edition of the GNSS Living Lab Prize was a great success. Evaluators received 57 ideas for the 2010 LL Prize, which they whittled down first to 10 finalists and then to a winner for each of the three themes (GNSS for health, ageing and inclusion, GNSS for energy efficiency and environment and Media and participation). Currently, the three winners are “happily married” with three well-matched living labs that had entered a so-called 'match-making' process, held in the months after the ESNC award ceremony.
Prize money of €10,000 was given to each of the three innovative GNSS-related ideas, and a further €20,000 was given to their living lab ‘partners’. More info at: www.gsa.europa.eu/go/news/living-labs-provide-reality-checks-for-satnav-prototypes
Due to its success, the 2011 edition of the GNSS Living Lab Prize was launched, focused on same themes and two-phased approach. Deadline to submit your idea: 30th June 2011 Additional information on how to apply:
