Releasing the power of users - AFINO
Releasing the power of users:
Articulating user interests to accelerate new innovative pathways in digital health and welfare sector
The primary objective of the project is to develop a broad knowledge baser about how the different stakeholders on the e-health arena can engage in more user – centric models.
Further, it focuses on how users can become a source of responsible innovations by employing an enabling approach – a physical context, a toolkit and a framework methodology – through which users can be actively involved in the innovation process.
Thirdly, we consider the innovation eco-system by creating a boundary space (the Shared Innovation Futures Lab) in Stavanger where different stakeholders (system integrators, municipalities, healthcare professionals, small and start-up entrepreneurs and end users, in this sector can co-create innovations together in “safe spaces” within which experimentation, prototyping and learning from “intelligent failure” can take place.
