What  do  our  members  say?  

"IniFated  2006,  the  European  Network  of  Living  Labs  -­‐  ENoLL  -­‐  has  grown  into  a  global  network  of  212  living  labs  (4th  Wave)  that  instrument  user-­‐powered  real-­‐life  innovaFon  acFviFes  in  more  than  32  countries  (2010).  This  non-­‐profit  network  is  the  first  of  its  kind.  It  brings  together  innovaFon  professionals  with  large  groups  of  ciFzens/users  -­‐  across  geographical  administraFve  organisaFonal  and  cultural  borders  -­‐  in  joint  innovaFon  acFons  to  address  people's  every  day  needs  and  desires  as  well  as  major  global  challenges.”      Mikael  Börjeson,  CEO  CDT  Sweden,  Botnia  Living  Lab  (Sweden)    “I  feel  the  European  Network  of  Living  Labs  is  becoming  a  birthplace  for  sustainable  ciFes.  The  living  labs  are  proving  to  be  the  ideal  way  to  bring  ciFzens,  government  and  businesses  together  for  co-­‐innovaFon.  Living  labs  give  both  governments  and  ciFzens  a  way  to  explore  various  opFons  to  sustainable  city  iniFaFves  and  helps  free  them  from  limited  choices  provided  by  the  big  IT  vendors.    City  officials  face  overwhelming  opFons  in  selecFng  new  technologies,  and  a  living  lab  offers  them  a  way  to  gain  insights  through  vendor-­‐neutral  research.”    Pieter  Ballon,  IBBT/i.Lab.o  (Belgium)
