Abstract


International cooperation is an intrinsic component of the processes of innovation and development. Besides a model of cooperation, networks are an organizational model for institutional strengthening, for the articulation of national innovation systems and for the internationalization of them. Likewise, during the last 10 years there has been an increase of Living Labs linked to innovation in Europe. They are forming a growing community channeled through the European Network of Living Labs. The existing networks have been analyzed with the aim of knowing the state of the art and the future needs of the networks of Living Labs. The main objective is the exchange of best practices and lessons learned. The harmonization and integration of tools and methods among the partners is other cooperation objective. Finally, a third objective is to develop a larger scale research among the partners of the different laboratories. It is required a greater organizational structure to achieve collaborative and research results at a higher scale, the networks are still young.
