1 VTT TECHNICAL RESEARCH CENTRE OF FINLAND LTD Case: large scale demonstration projects Isabel Pinto Seppä, Miim Airaksinen (VTT)

2 Experiences from the preparation of large scale demonstration projects. SCC-02 Demonstrating innovative natre-based soltions in cities => 2 stages proposal Urban Natre Labs SC01 - Smart Cities and Commnities lighthose projects => single-stage proposal STARDUST - HOLISTIC AND INTEGRATED URBAN MODEL FOR SMART CITIES Smart Transition of EU cities towards a new concept of smart Life and Economy MAximizing the UPscaling and replication potential of high level rban transformation strategies 2

3 Timeline and proposal setp large scale demonstration complex projects large nmber of partners long preparation time Target is to create evidence base, technological and financial feasibility => increase deployment, propagation and large scale replication of these soltions and create the expected impact. 1 st stage 2 nd stage DL Focs on bild the consortia: cities and demo team /Transversal isses. Define roles. Define objectives, concept approach and create a shared vision. Define the critical path to create the expected impact. Otline proposal strctre and bdget. Innovation. Monitoring. Common story line and consistency. Detailed demonstration activities and correspondent bdget. Intensive commnication work between demo teams and within WPs. Overall harmonization and work plan alignment. Detail the elements of replication, dissemination and on bilding the evidence. 3

4 Proposal content and consortia

5 UnaLAB objectives Implementation of living lab demonstration areas of natre-based soltions to enhance the climate and water resilience of cities. Target to create a robst evidence base and Eropean framework. Soltions are selected via co-creation with stakeholders and implemented in a in the context of an integrated rban ecological approach. Demonstration of evidence in 3 front-rnner cities in an rban innovation ecosystem. Knowledge transfer and replication plans in follower cities. This project has received fnding from the Eropean Union s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme nder Grant Agreement No Topic: SCC : Smart Cities and Commnities Natre based soltions This project has received fnding from the Eropean Union s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme nder Grant Agreement No Topic: SCC : Smart Cities and Commnities Natre based soltions

6 Central focs on cities/rban environment needs Expertise for R&D, innovation and demonstration, impact creation and monitoring, replication and dissemination, knowledge exchange, bsiness models and bankable soltions. Enhance replication and impact by clstering. Internationalization Eindhoven (NL), Tampere (FI) and Genova (IT) Stavanger (NO), Castellon (ES), Cannes (FR), Praha (CZ), BAŞAKŞEHIR (TR) Gangzho and Hong Kong (CN), Brazilian network of Smart Cities (BR), Beno Aires (AR) Indstry inclding SMEs: Land Milano, Engineering, M3S, Ramboll, Innovation Hb,!mpls, D Appolonia, Part Cientific, Hlavni Mesto Praha, Ubatec Networks: ENoLL, ERRIN Total of 28 partners (+ 2 observers) from Indstry, Research and Pblic organisations. This project has received fnding from the Eropean Union s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme nder Grant Agreement No Topic: SCC : Smart Cities and Commnities Natre based soltions This project has received fnding from the Eropean Union s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme nder Grant Agreement No Topic: SCC : Smart Cities and Commnities Natre based soltions

7 UnaLAB approach This project has received fnding from the Eropean Union s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme nder Grant Agreement No Topic: SCC : Smart Cities and Commnities Natre based soltions This project has received fnding from the Eropean Union s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme nder Grant Agreement No Topic: SCC : Smart Cities and Commnities Natre based soltions

8 UNaLab Clstering activities SCC (GROW GREEN, CONNECTING and URBAN GreenUP) commnication and dissemination, methodology for assessing the effectiveness of natre-based soltions, long-term sstainable data platforms, and governance and finance models CSAs CITYKEYS, EKLIPSE, ESPRESSO, In addition co-operation with Think Natre, NATURVATION, Natr4Cities, NAIAD, coming SCC5 projects This project has received fnding from the Eropean Union s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme nder Grant Agreement No Topic: SCC : Smart Cities and Commnities Natre based soltions This project has received fnding from the Eropean Union s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme nder Grant Agreement No Topic: SCC : Smart Cities and Commnities Natre based soltions

9 Do keep attention to: Citizens are in the center of the rban environments. Ethics and data management. Other responsible research as e.g. gender balance. Connection with national and other regional initiatives. Do a good and realistic risk analysis. This demonstration projects are an excellent opportnity to involve SMEs (inclding start-ps). Depending on what is the offer and the experience, the role might be more or less centralized in the whole project approach. 9

10 Operational isses

11 This project has received fnding from the Eropean Union s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme nder Grant Agreement No Topic: SCC : Smart Cities and Commnities Natre based soltions

12 operational isses (1/2) roles Coordination and city leadership Coordination and main proposal writing: scientific coordinator, writing roles, administrative coordination, demo/living-labs coordination Roles on writing connected with roles on proposal: dissemination manager, exploitation manager, replication manager, etc Bdget and other costs - very connected and interlinked with demos actions F2F meetings Bild a shared vision, clarify expected inpts and roles, work on proposal main elements. Important for the network and knowledge exchange between the cities in the consortia 1 or 2 - kick-off with timeline, expectations, roles, work assignment, etc Special city/ demo oriented workshops both at local level with local consortim as well as proposal level also with follower cities. Align impacts, actions and work plan timeline. 12

13 operational isses (2/2) Commnications Clarify commnication roles, commnicate these and delegate. Bild contacts lists also for the proposal. Keep consistency. Bdget Start early, bild and commnicate the main expected inpts. Commnicate H2020 financial and cost reporting isses. Stay on bdget! Jstify any nbalance. For the large demonstration activities be clear on what the EC fnd is intended to spport and on other leverage fnds. Read all instrctions in detail, ask for advise. Keep in mind the project exection. 13
