Although EIP projects are scarce in the EU, Chamusca’s EIP differs from other similar endeavours by following the same principles of Open Innovation projects: the assembly of the necessary conditions in a participated network that seeks to overcome concrete problems, of the community but also of the country, through a process of collective innovation.
Thus, the services offered by the EIP to the companies are mainly focused on R&D in recycling technologies, IS facilitation, certification provider (e.g. ISO and EIP certification), monitoring, data base collection and handling, business start up services, environmental education and training and centralized logistics.
According to this reality, it seemed natural to the project's stakeholders to develop a Living Lab's approach, launching the ECO LivingLab@Chamusca initiative, that was presented to the ENoLL as an application to the 2nd wave call.
