Institution building!

• Structural reform in research landscape - New and strong

knowledge institutions, able to become beacons in their own

countries/ regions – at the heart of possible far-reaching reform

processes

• Centres of excellence able to spur innovation and growth

• We do not want to see yet another good ‘Coordination Action’ but

a true New Institution, claiming a new position in the national and

international science and innovation scene

• EC expects that Centres of Excellence are reorganising and

integrating/possibly downsizing existing institutions!

• Ambitious long term ventures

about renewable materials

• To enhance international cooperation and mobility


Concept – innovation and added value


RIS3 – Slovenia and InnoRenew CoE

• Integration of the wood chain in the design of homes and working environments of the future

• Sustainable biomass transformation and new bio-based materials, technologies for use of secondary and raw-materials, reuse of waste


Project structure


Teaming – strategic decision

Long term joint venture


InnoRenew CoE RDI Plan

Interdependent research:

renewable materials,

sustainable building,

business support, and

ICT

Core research themes

Health, Design and

Cultural Heritage, and

Policy

new, advanced

knowledge in

REED and modified wood


Wood Modification

chemical, thermal, and impregnation/polymerization


REED combines restorative environmental design (RED) with

ergonomic interventions in buildings and products.

RED is a combination of expanded sustainable building methods

with building practices that benefit occupant health.


Human / user - health

How material selection influence our health?


Scientific - Fundamental and applied research - increased resource

efficiency, extended product life, and the effect of building and materials

on human health and well-being

Economy - innovative transformation of the renewable resource industry

(especially forest products) to a competitive knowledge-based industry

Societal – Creating an innovation encouraging and engaging

environment (research and innovation culture) that will result in value-

added products

Expected impact


How?

Partnership with

Fraunhofer WKI, an

institution of research

and innovation

excellence

With networks of

excellent scientists

Facilitating collaboration

with industry, research

organizations, scientific

institutes, stakeholder

groups and the public

Definition of Living lab

A Living Lab is an ecosystem for experimentation and co-

creation with real users in real life environments, where the

end users together with researchers, firms and public

institutions jointly explore, design and validate new and

innovative products, services, solutions and business models

with the support and usage of ICT.

A living lab is a user-centred, open-innovation ecosystem,

often operating in a territorial context (e.g. city, region),

integrating concurrent research and systemic innovation

processes within a public-private-people

partnership.


LL InnoRenew Living Lab
