The document provides an overview of the European Network of Living Labs (ENoLL). ENoLL is a non-profit network of 274 living labs across Europe that brings together citizens, researchers, companies and public administrations to co-create innovative solutions. The network is coordinated by an office in Brussels and provides various services and opportunities to its members, including networking events, project development support and visibility activities. It also manages initiatives like the Connected Smart Cities Network to promote collaboration between cities on challenges like sustainability and mobility.

do
our
members
say?
"IniFated
2006,
the
European
Network
of
Living
Labs
-­‐
ENoLL
-­‐
has
grown
into
a
global
network
of
212
living
labs
(4th
Wave)
that
instrument
user-­‐powered
real-­‐life
innovaFon
acFviFes
in
more
than
32
countries
(2010).
This
non-­‐profit
network
is
the
first
of
its
kind.
It
brings
together
innovaFon
professionals
with
large
groups
of
ciFzens/users
-­‐
across
geographical
administraFve
organisaFonal
and
cultural
borders
-­‐
in
joint
innovaFon
acFons
to
address
people's
every
day
needs
and
desires
as
well
as
major
global
challenges.”
Mikael
Börjeson,
CEO

Botnia
Living
Lab
(Sweden)
“I
feel
the
European
Network
of
Living
Labs
is
becoming
a
birthplace
for
sustainable
ciFes.
The
living
labs
are
proving
to
be
the
ideal
way
to
bring
ciFzens,
government
and
businesses
together
for
co-­‐innovaFon.
Living
labs
give
both
governments
and
ciFzens
a
way
to
explore
various
opFons
to
sustainable
city
iniFaFves
and
helps
free
them
from
limited
choices
provided
by
the
big
IT
vendors.
City
officials
face
overwhelming
opFons
in
selecFng
new
technologies,
and
a
living
lab
offers
them
a
way
to
gain
insights
through
vendor-­‐neutral
research.”
