This region has a unique territorial extension and population dynamics. It is a land of opportunity for global businesses, houses world-class colleges, universities and applied research institutes, and has been recently acknowledged as a global innovative mega-region. We apply social network analysis to this region as an innovative and valuable methodology to identify significant local contributors, defined as according to key elements and success factors that promote and establish communication and interaction among the network stakeholders. %B Technology Innovation Management Review %I Talent First Network %C Ottawa %V 10 %P 5-15 %8 01/2020 %G eng %U timreview.ca/article/1320 %N 1 %1 CETYS Universidad Dr. Sylvia Mónica Pérez-Núñez, holds a PhD in Global Development Studies from the Faculty of Economics and International Relations of the Autonomous University of Baja California, México in 2016.

Documenting the views of Finnish regional developers into two workbooks and a toolbox, the results of the INNOFOKUS project and its Change2020 development programme identified that promoting a high-impact project culture and smart specialization in Finland requires a continuous learning and participation process. Key individuals who can make this happen are innovation orchestrators who facilitate activities and compose the big picture. This article aims to bring forth an overview of the building blocks of an enriching and energizing environment and high-impact projects, and it presents an overview of how to enable the work of innovation orchestrators, who play a critical role in facilitating innovation ecosystems. %B Technology Innovation Management Review %I Talent First Network %C Ottawa %V 5 %P 52-62 %8 10/2015 %G eng %U http://timreview.ca/article/937 %N 10 %1 Aalto University Mervi Rajahonka (D.Sc.

City centres and neighbourhoods have increasingly been serving as regional living labs, which are ideal platforms to explore the needs of users as residents and citizens. This article examines the characteristics and success factors of urban living labs based on a case study of Suurpelto, Finland. Urban living lab activity is characterized by a practice-based innovation process with diffuse and heterogeneous knowledge production that aims to address urban problems of varying complexity. User involvement is critical for co-creating value, but equally important is collaboration between other living lab actors: enablers, providers, and utilizers. Enabler-driven labs can be successful in creating common goals but they need providers, such as development organizations, to boost development. Proactive networking, experimentation as a bottom-up process, using student innovators as resources, as well as commitment and longevity in development work are success factors for urban living labs. %B Technology Innovation Management Review %I Talent First Network %C Ottawa %V 3 %P 22-27 %8 11/2013 %G eng %U http://timreview.ca/article/742 %N 11 %1 Laurea University of Applied Sciences Soile Juujärvi is a Principal Lecturer at the Laurea University of Applied Sciences and Adjunct Professor at the University of Helsinki in Finland.
