Living Lab for Smart Society (LL4SS) aka Living Lab Stratumseind 2.0

Netherlands: North Brabant

Overview

This not for profit initiative aims to provide Living Lab services for people and organizations collaborating to make the vision of Smart Society a reality.

The term 'smart society' was coined by the former mayor of Eindhoven. He used the term to illustrate that Smart Cities have a scope limited to infrastructure. He said: there are no smart cities, only smart people. With the term Smart Society Eindhoven aims to point out that the infrastructure isn't the end goal. A city people enjoy living in, facilitated with the smartest of technologies, is.

The Living Lab for Smart Society has succesfully prototyped Smart Society services on a FIWARE platform, notably in the largest clubbing street in The Netherlands. It also continues to collect feedback, through a primary response group and larger audiences. It helps realize publicity, through the frequent visits paid to the Living Lab. Through a partnership program it creates marketing opportunities. In close collaboration with the municipality, more aspects of Smart Society will be explored. Working with ATOS will help open up a broader market.

In the most recent stage, our not for profit objective is to to realize the type of collaboration needed for a city to work on Smart Society. It's not something that any municipality can do on their own; partnerships are required, a.o. with professionals in businesses. We are exploring how the municipality of Eindhoven, Atos and Philips can collaborate to create a structurally better functioning and less costly care system, using the advantages of Big Data and other Smart Society technologies. As a not for profit initiative. Digital technologies.
