Quali tipi di innovazione in H2020?
PRIMA:
Innovazione da attivitè R&D – commercializzazione di un prodotto o servizio
migliorato ‐
prevalentemente tecnologica, di prodotto, incrementale, lineare, migliorativa...

ORA:
Innovazione su altri livelli:
processo, paradigma, organizzazione

•Combinazione innovativa di tecnologie, sistemi e soluzioni esistenti
•Nuovi business models o nuovi modi di interagire con gli utenti
•Innovazioni non commerciali e a scopo sociale

H2020 introduces different forms of innovation
              3 emerging forms of innovation:
Disruptive Innovation
   “it creates new markets applying new sets of rules, values and models which
   ultimately disrupt and/or overtake existing markets by displacing earlier
   technologies and alliances” (ODI- Open and Disruptive Innovation scheme)

Open Innovation
   “innovation model based on extensive networking and co-creative collaboration
   between all actors in society, spanning organisational boundaries well beyond normal
   licensing and collaboration schemes” (Open Innovation Yearbook 2014)

Social innovation
   (technology-based o non tecnologica, profit, no-profit o...low profit)

                                                                                 4
The economic crisis context and the new
challenges

                                                 These concepts have
                                                 been challenged: GDP
                                                 | Growth | Economic
                                                 Value | Impact
                                                 Measurement…

  L’innovazione sociale è legata alla crisi di sistema e paradigma
            Crisi di modelli sia sociali che economici…
                                                                       5
A che livello agisce l’innovazione sociale?
    A livello dei modelli che regolano il funzionamento e l’organizzazione
   della società intesa come sistema complesso, come sistema/ecosistema.
Modelli di produzione, catene del valore         Efficienti, sostenibili, impatto ambientale?

Welfare (sanità, assistenza sociale, pensioni,   Come riorganizzarli in tempi di scarsità di risorse e di cambio
flexicurity, welfare sociale)                    demografico (aumento popolazione mondiale, invecchiamento)?

Modelli di governance e decisionali / ruolo      Come si costruiscono le politiche? Chi propone / decide?
                                                 co-creazione, cambia il ruolo delle PA e dei cittadini
degli attori sociali

Sostenibilità del lavoro                         Modalità contrattuali, flessibilità, homeworking, equilibrio
                                                 lavoro-vita privata, outsourcing / open innovation…

Modelli imprenditoriali                          Valori e missioni aziendali, creazione del valore (non solo
                                                 economico)     si riflette in nuove forme societarie

Modelli finanziari e di investimento             Monete alternative; Crowdfunding; Finanza ad impatto;
                                                 superamento del PIL, Social Impact Bond

Stile di vita (salute, modo di consumare…)       Prevenzione e sostenibilità (condivido, riciclo, riuso…),
                                                 accento su relazioni umane e benessere (cambiano obiettivi)

Modelli di urbanizzazione e di convivenza        Urban design, smart cities, sostenibilità ambientale in
                                                 relazione alla sovrappopolazione

 “Social innovations are new ideas (products,
 services and models) that meet social needs
 more effectively than alternatives”

 Fanno un uso migliore e diverso (sostenibile) dei
 beni e delle risorse disponibili, esplorando nuovi
 modelli. Vuole agire non sui sintomi ma sulle cause
 dei problemi

   Migliora le relazioni tra gli attori
   Attiva nuovi flussi/processi di scambio
   Valorizza e libera nuove risorse normalmente non sfruttate
   (“untapped”, underutilized societal goods, time, energies,
   emotional exchange, and skills)

“ Social innovations are innovations that are social in both their
ends and their means.

We define social innovations as new ideas (products, services and
models) that simultaneously meet social needs (more effectively
than alternatives) and lead to new or improved capabilities and
relationships and better use of assetes and resources.

In other words they are innovations that are good for society and
enhance society’s capacity to act. ”

A che livello avviene la social innovation?

Prodotti/Soluzioni
Modelli di consumo (Es: Sharing Economy)
Modelli organizzativi (in tutti i settori)
Nuove forme societarie (Es: Social Business/Enterprise)
Modelli di finanziamento (Es: Crowdfunding)
Trasversale a tutti i settori: salute, alimentazione e
agricoltura, energia, trasporti, ambiente, servizi sociali….

Trend attuali di cui si deve tenere conto quando si va a pensare, sviluppare,
testare, modellare un’idea (servizio, modello di business sostenibile...)
A scanso di equivoci…

•Anziani: isolamento e senso di insicurezza
•Giovani: poca disponibilità di alloggi ; costi
elevati

Impatto:
•Ritessere il legame intergenerazionale
•Mantenere gli anziani nella loro casa il più a
lungo possibile, offrendogli anche un sostegno
economico / welfare
•Dare ai giovani la possibilità di un alloggio a
prezzo equo – periodi brevi

Digital social innovation (DSI)
Large mapping study launched by DG Connect in
May 2013 ‐ Led by NESTA. It analyses:
•130 social innovation cases enabled by the
‘network effect’ (internet connectivity)
•How digital tools empower communities and
social entrepreneurs to solve societal problems.

   From distributed data to Collective intelligence:
from sensors, IoT, social or user‐generated content
to organised knowledge to solve problems that
individuals cannot tackle by themselves.

Digital Social Innovation is based on…
•   The power of data: Big data / Open data (correlation vs causation)
•   Co‐creation and co‐design (living‐lab, user‐driven/open innovation)
•   Engagement techniques (incentives for joining and cooperation/sharing)
•   Gamification (serious games) techniques motivation and
    incentives: e.g. competition and rewarding (scoring , credits)
• Hyperconnectiviy and network effect
     – peer pressure and imitation,
     – rating and reputation online
     – models of patterns of online habits,    impact awareness and behaviour

SOCIAL INNOVATION:                                            l’innovazione sociale.
•Riflessione su cambiamenti nei meccanismi di organizzazione/interazione sociale, es:
     •   Governance (impostazione centrica, collaborativa, multistakeholder, attiva, passiva);
     •   Intersettorialità (ruolo dei differenti settori nella società (gov, impresa, cittadino, terzo settore si re-
         inventano un ruolo? Collaborano?)…
     •   Modalità di comunicazione tra attori (orizzontali/ verticali, mono-direzionali/interattivi);
•Aspetti valoriali / comportamentali /di stile di vita (motivazione, gratificazione, identità e
identificazione, senso di appartenenza, imitazione e “peer-pressure”, riconoscimento
/riprovazione sociale…)
•Ha una componente di pratica, sperimentazione e applicazione (pilot, testing, scaling…)

Es.: Robotica, Human-centric digital age, Health research, necessitano della presenza di
studiosi in scienze cognitive, psicologia, etica, ma ciò riguarda una prospettiva di studio e di
contributo multidisciplinare – no impatto su processi, modelli, pratiche…

•   Cambio di ruolo tra attori (beyond silos), il fornitore del servizio potrebbe essere
    quello non tradizionale.
•   Co‐creazione tra attori
•   Approccio olistico e impatto sistemico: oltre alla risoluzione del problema
    particolare, il nuovo sistema creato dal progetto produce esternalità positive anche
    su altre questioni e dinamiche sociali (altri soggetti, catene del valore). Si soddisfano
    bisogni di diversi gruppi sociali e si modificano processi.
•   Risorse: il valore creato non è necessariamente monetizzabile; si valorizza tempo,
    capitale relazionale, affettivo, riuso oggetti…
•   Sostenibilità, ambientale ed economica.
•   Nuovi valori e stili di vita: trasparenza; condivisione (vs possesso); non‐consumismo;
    collaborazione (e.g. creative commons vs copyright)…
•   Ruolo ICT: scalabilità su larga scala, network, matching, auto‐organizzazione e
    interattività, intelligenza collettiva, concetto di reputazione online su social
    networks.
