23 Tue 5th May, 2015 Interactive sessions Session 1: Fostering innovation-driven entrepreneurship (Vaunukamari 1) Three phases of the entrepreneurial life cycle are part of a new model for understanding how stakeholders can better support serial entrepreneurs in Europe: 1) Stand up Promoting the attitudes and skills required to mobilize Europeans with the desire and the ability to create scalable entrepreneurial ventures; 2) Start up Gathering the resources to start up a business, with particular focus on access to capital for entrepreneurs across the European Union, 3) Scale up Enabling ventures to scale, with particular focus on collaborations between entrepreneurs and large corporations that simultaneously improve the innovation capacity of both partners to create growth and jobs across the region. Fostering innovation-driven entrepreneurship can help Europe remain an innovation powerhouse, but only if measures are taken to improve support services and address market fragmentation. In this session, we focus on the scale-up phase, which according to World Economic Forum, is the phase, where European entrepreneurs are at a disadvantage to counterparts in North America in the entrepreneurial life cycle. In this session, we hear three views on growth entrepreneurship in the scale up phase.

24 Tue 5th May, 2015 Interactive sessions Session 2. Internet of Things for renewing industries (Vaunukamari 1) Internet of Things is a key enabler for Smart City. IoT technologies enable intelligent services for the citizens, smart transport and mobility, and are essential for the connected health services, and help in reducing energy consumption and waste. But this is not all, IoT and its sister concept Industrial Internet are behind the disruption named as Third industrial revolution. They are essential for the competitiveness of companies and the most significant source of economic growth and employment in years to come. What will the Third industrial revolution bring to companies, local authorities, research and education and what should we do about it? Join us in the interesting session about IoT renewing the industries.

25 Tue 5th May, 2015 Interactive sessions Session 3: Open and agile smart cities (Vaunumaakari 2) Open & Agile Smart Cities - connecting cities with open data, open interfaces and open processes. Cities across the globe are looking for ways to spur open innovation. Innovation is needed to overcome the digital transition of cities, and it needs to be open to include a variety of stakeholders of the whole urban community, and to establish a competitive but attractive market for developers, increasing quality and avoiding vendor lock-ins. One city is not a market, however. A sizable market consists of cities in several countries, or a continent. We need global "de facto standards for portability and interoperability to create a true global market for smart city services, so that developers can start investing in civic technologies and public-private innovation partnerships. To achieve this, 31 cities from 7 countries (and counting) have joined forces under the Open & Agile Smart Cities (OCAS) initiative. OASC kickstarts the use of a shared set of ways to developing systems once and making them interoperable between cities across borders. Simple, functional and minimal standard ways of accessing and exchanging data have the potential to boost up the speed of smart city innovations and marketplace. The mechanisms used in OASC are pragmatic, simple and open: driven-by-implementation approach, open APIs (FIWARE NGSI), open data models (CitySDK) and open data/api publication platforms (CKAN). In this highly interactive session urban innovators are invited to discuss about opportunities of open urban development with the experts from the European Commission, Open Knowledge Foundation and the OASC initiative.

26 Tue 5th May, 2015 Interactive sessions Session 4: Smart city business models (Vaunumaakari 2) The interactive session will focus on alternative and opportunity providing business models employed in smart cities by the cities themselves or the different stakeholders playing an active role in smart cities. Special attention is paid to ICT technology enabled smart services and utilities business models, both currently used, alternative, or to be developed for smart cities. Chair: Catherine Mulligan, Head of Digital Strategy and Economics at Future Cities Catapult and Research Fellow at Imperial College, London Co-Chair: Aki Pekuri, Researcher, University of Oulu - Petri Ahokangas, Associate Professor, Senior Research Fellow, Oulu Business School, University of Oulu - Ville Valovirta, Senior Scientist, VTT We reserve the right to make changes to this program

27 Tue 5th May, 2015 Interactive sessions Session 5: Creative economy ecosystems (Kamarineuvos) IF - the creative industries have been seen to become increasingly important to economic well-being, proponents suggesting that "human creativity is the ultimate economic resource". AND - smart city uses digital technologies to enhance performance and wellbeing, to reduce costs and resource consumption and to engage more effectively and actively with its citizens. MOREOVER - key 'smart' sectors include transport, energy, health care, water and waste. DO WE SEE - creative economy, ecosystems between creative industries and these key sectors as a highway to Smart City?

28 Tue 5th May, 2015 Interactive sessions Session 6: Citizen participation, crowdsourcing and social media (Kamarineuvos) Crowdsourcing and social media - changing the decision making processes for companies as well as for cities? Social media services and social intranets are widely used in engaging employees, customers or citizens to participate in everything from product development to municipal decision making. What's the situation in Finland? How and why to do it, pros and cons? Decision making process are becoming open, see-through processes, rather than shady meeting rooms and behind closed doors. Why and what does it mean?

29 Tue 5th May, 2015 Interactive sessions Session 7: Innovation policy - Implications of new business logic (Kivitaneli) Usefulness of the decades-old hegemonic concepts such as clusters, value chains and core competences is beginning to decline. Internet economy has changed the economic environment remarkably: central terms of the new business logic are business and innovation ecosystems, development platforms, technology adjacencies, value networks, crowdsourcing etc. As business logics change, innovation policy must respond to this development and to the policy challenges posed by it by changing considerably in the near future. Session focuses on the guidelines of this new innovation policy.

30 Tue 5th May, 2015 Interactive sessions Session 8: Living Lab as an engine of growth (Kivitaneli) Living lab is a user-centered, open-innovation ecosystem, often operating in a definite context, integrating concurrent research and innovation processes within a public-private-people partnership. Despite its potential there are very rare cases where a living lab has become a sustainable innovation service provider and an attractive partner to enterprises and municipalities. The challenges of living labs to be discussed by the panelists are: How living labs are integrated to local innovation ecosystems? How enterprises can benefit from living labs in their new business and product introduction? How public procurement can benefit from living labbing? What service offering makes a living lab attractive to enterprises? What are the key elements of sustainable living lab?

40 Connected Health Digital Health Revolution Connected Health Workshop Digital Health Revolution 6th May 2015, Oulu, Finland More information: Maritta Perälä- Heape, Director Centre for Health and Technology Digital health paradigm is dramatically changing how people think act and access services in their lives. Drivers for this have become global megatrends, e.g. prevention (or staying healthy), eliminating unnecessary costs, personalization of health care, and the accelerating convergence of healthcare and wellbeing businesses. Future healthcare will allow an individual to control and make use of his or her personal data, including genome data, health and wellbeing monitoring data and everyday behavioral data. This My Data approach will change health care processes, create useroriented applications for health promotion and self-care and business logics. Fundamental change of attitudes is needed to fully exploit My Data.
