Facilitating the establishment of Living Labs in Timisoara, Romania
It is such a great pleasure to see that #livinglabs and #regional #innovation systems are working in #Timisoara and #WesternRomania.
Our mission is to work with #industry #publicsector and #society and help them develop solutions to local and regional challenges.
On the 3rd of February 2022 we joined forces with local actors and engaged in a debate on #living labs and #quadruplehelix engagement live at TVR Romania.
Adrian Solomon presented our RiEcoLab Project (funded by EIT HEI Initiative EIT Manufacturing European Commission) and how this project supports living lab development to speed up #research commercialization.
The discussion involved Alexandra Petcu from West University of Timisoara, Radu Vasiu from Politehnica University of Timisoara, Agneta Kardos from Timiș County Council and Valentin Muresan from Primăria Municipiului Timișoara. Excellent opportunity provided by Mihai Lisetchi !
Key messages:
#talent comes from universities
#publicsector is open for cooperation
need #incentives to motivate society to engage in collaboration
#industry is keen to lead the process
