EURBANLAB
Accelerating urban innovations

Resumen – Summary
Proyecto de Innovación de la Climate-KIC cuyo principal objetivo es la aceleración de los ciclos de innovación en las ciudades y la superación de la reticencia generalizada a invertir en proyectos innovadores y sistémicos.
Con este fin las principales acciones que se llevan a cabo son:
Desarrollo de una galería on-line que recopila innovaciones urbanas desarrolladas en Europa.
Sistema de indicadores urbanos para la evaluación ad hoc de las innovaciones, a partir de una aproximación denominada “5P” que evalúa el proyecto en sus ámbitos social, mediaombiental, económico, metodológico y divulgativo. Los resultados sirven, en primera instancia, para valorar su posible sistematización y aplicación en contextos urbanos diferentes a los originales, y también para el asesoramiento de otros proyectos similares.
Fomento de una red de expertos internacional. El fomento de la diversidad en dicha comunidad favorece el intercambio de información, estimula la actividad investigadora y ofrece un marco favorable para el desarrollo de nuevos modelos de negocio. Cabe destacar que esta comunidad cuenta con una plantilla de consultores y expertos internacionales ubicados en instituciones de investigación de reconocido prestigio en el ámbito europeo.
Eurbanlab has developed a framework to guide cities to sustainability through systemic urban innovations. The challenge is to accelerate innovation cycles in cities and overcome a general reluctance to invest in innovative and systemic projects. Eurbanlab proves through its assessments which innovations are ready to be widely implemented and understands what process to use to accelerate the achievement of increasingly sustainable results.
Eurbanlab has developed a model for harvesting, analysing and assessing information on urban innovations, with a special emphasis on the energy efficiency of complete neighbourhoods.
Eurbanlab performs assessments of potential innovations. A systematic and scientific evaluation of any sustainable urban innovation is carried out. Performance is assessed in terms of ‘profit, people and planet’ dimensions, and an in-depth analysis will indicate the importance of the process in achieving the results and the capacity to scale up the innovation and apply it to other contexts.
In doing so, Eurbanlab provides a service for rating the investment risk of urban projects and for advising European stakeholders (such as cities, developers, utilities, services providers, integrators, engineering companies, urban planning agencies, architects, contractors) which innovations to adopt and implement.
Eurbanlab also works to support, create and spread their knowledge among all stakeholders.
