Practise based coordination of the follow-up reserach of innovation platforms

Purpose and goal:

The project has two objective: synthesize the results from the research at the six the innovation platforms and provide ongoing knowledge support to particpating municplaites. The first goal has been achieved through the publication of reports and an anthology, as well as ongoing digital lectures. The second goal has been achieved through several meetings with the participating municipalities.

Expected results and effects:

Within the framework of the project, we have conducted three jjoint meetings with the participating muncipalites: one at the end of 2021 and two in 2022. At the reflection meetings, the researchers and representatives from the participating municipalities have reflected on lessons learned from the work with the innovationplatforms.. That work has been used in several publictaions and an anthology published at Nordic Academic Press in early 2024.

The results have also been presented on several occasions during 2022 and 2023, both as digital presentations and at workshops. Approach and implementation:

The project has worked in two steps. In 2021 and 2022, we focused on gathering emperical matherial and analyse those. The analys was carried out through ongoing digital meetings between the researchers: a kick-off meeting in 2021, six meetings in 2022, and four meetings in 2023. Together with the municipalities, we have conducted three reflection meetings: November 22 - 23 in Lund, where we discussed our results.

During the second half of 2022, we began reporting our results through digital lectures, a digital tour in autumn 2023 and participation at the Quality Fair in November 2023.
