TPM innovation partner of the European Network of Living Labs (ENoLL)
This year, TPM has become an innovation partner of the European Network of Living Labs (ENoLL). The membership was officially confirmed during the annual Open Living Lab Days, held from September 23-27 in Timisoara, Romania. Heleen Vreugdenhil and Jill Slinger represent TPM in the network. Together with Astha Bhatta, their research focuses on the impact of Living Labs and the role they play in policy processes. ENoLL is a network organization with over 160 Living Labs from various sectors.
Co-creation in Living Labs
A Living Lab is an applied innovation and testing environment where citizens, government, industry, and academia collaborate on innovation through co-creation. ENoLL is of interest to us at TPM, and to the entire TU Delft for several reasons. It brings together the aforementioned parties, certifies Living Labs and aims to influence EU policy. It also supports in setting up and upscaling of (European) Living Labs and actively approaches partners for potentially interesting calls. The annual Open Living Lab Days take place in September.
