Welcome!

LIVING INNOVATION is one of the first industry driven initiatives on Responsible Innovation in Europe.

Major companies, leading researchers and civil society organizations joined forces to explore the diverse business opportunities resulting from Responsible Innovation. Together we co-create responsible solutions in the area of smart homes and smart health and co-develop innovation tools that can be applied in other business sectors as well.

LIVING INNOVATION combines a vibrant online community with a series of on-site workshops and online dialogues. By engaging citizens and lead users we strive to co-create the way we will live in 2030 - combining creativity and business acumen, human-centred design and responsibility. read more….
