Transformative governance of personal health ecosystems

Invited speech of Dr. Totti Könnölä, CEO inf Insight Foresight Institute in the scientific conference ‘Bioengineering for Healthy Ageing. Adding Life to Years’ November 9th 2017, CosmoCaixa Barcelona.

Future personal health ecosystems encompass various areas of application such as chronic disease management, life-style management, independent living and emergency services. Such future systems assist in the provision of continuous, quality controlled and personalised health services to empowered individuals regardless of location and provide a horizontal development area across variety of patients, clinical specialties, technology fields and health services. Hence, the development of such ecosystems requires transformative governance that enable coordination and federation of diverse stakeholders.

Policy Experimentation for Pan-European Entrepreneurial Innovation Ecosystems

José Manuel Leceta, General Manager of Red.es, and Totti Könnölä, CEO of Insight Foresight Institute write on their experiences on the EIT. The article was presented in the seminar  “Growth ecosystems as a tool in the new industrial and innovation policy” organised by by SITRA and Ministry of Economy and Employment of Finland.

Established economies face major challenges in renewing their industrial basis, apparent in Europe that is struggling over decades in turning research into innovation. Policy experimentation in the periphery of government and power structures may offer opportunities for radically new policy and governance models and practices. Herein, the ‘European Institute of Innovation and Technology’ (EIT) is a relatively new policy experiment for entrepreneurial innovation. Created in 2008, the EIT operates through socalled ‘Knowledge and Innovation Communities’ (KICs) which integrate partners from the Knowledge Triangle of higher education, research and business, encompassing bottomup ‘co-creation’ of novel innovation models for Pan-European entrepreneurial innovation ecosystems. While the high political profile of the EIT has constrained partly its freedom to experiment, European-wide networked excellence approach and business logic in managing KICs has created new insights on experimental governance models to be explored further. Building on action research case study the paper codifies some of these developments and opens up an avenue for further work on the experimental governance of Pan-European entrepreneurial innovation ecosystems.

(Re)searching the critical ‘meso’ level: learning innovation agencies and entrepreneurial ecosystems

logo_euspriInsight Foresight Institute organises a special track in the 2016 Annual Conference of the EU-SPRI Forum, organised in Lund, Sweden, June 7-10, 2016.

Track theme 6:(Re)searching the critical ‘meso’ level: Learning innovation agencies and Entrepreneurial ecosystems
The ‘meso level’ efforts of learning innovation a agencies are to play a new and increasingly important role: from ‘funding and coordination’ to ‘facilitation and orchestration’ of entrepreneurial ecosystems. Herein, further understanding is needed to advance the theory and practice of:
-innovation agencies in experimenting new instruments
-open innovation schemes like IP licensing, open-source platforms and partnerships
-capital investments and corporate and university venturing
-foresight, intelligence and learning within innovation agencies

In addition to paper presentations on these topics a panel session will be organized with Jose Manuel Leceta, Totti Könnölä, Dan Breznitz, Göran Marklund (tbc), Jakob Edler and Albert Bravo-Biosca. Please contact: totti.konnola@if-institute.org for further information about the Track Theme.
