9. Some
findings
from
FIREBALL
“How
European
ci.es
are
currently
developing
strategies
towards
becoming
smarter
ci.es
and
the
lessons
we
can
draw
for
the
future.
These
strategies
are
also
based
on
a
new
understanding
of
innova.on,
grounded
in
the
concept
of
Open
innova:on
ecosystems,
global
innova:on
chains
and
on
ci:zen’s
empowerment
for
shaping
innova:on
and
urban
development.
These
new
ways
of
innova:on
are
characterised
1)
high
level
of
ci:zen
involvement
in
co-­‐crea:ng
internet-­‐based
applica:ons
and
services
and
2)
emergence
of
new
forms
of
collabora.on
(e.g.
PPPs)”*
“Open

to
bridge
the
gap
between
the
R&D
of
ICT
and
actually
experimen.ng
and
using
Internet-­‐based
applica.ons
in
ci.es.
These
applica:ons
and

are
intended
to
bring
societal
and
economic
benefits
in
areas
such
as

10. Some
findings
from
FIREBALL
(2)
“Smart
ci:es
need
to
develop
strategies
and
migra.on
paths
regarding
how
they
will
make
use
of
available
internet
infrastructures,
testbed
facili.es,
applica.ons
and
know-­‐how,
and
how
they
will
develop
PPP
for
their
access,
use
and
exploita:on.
A
par:cular
point
of
aOen:on
is
how
those
assets
can
be
made
openly
accessible
for
both
users
and
developers
in
order
to
s:mulate
experimenta:on
and
innova:on
in
becoming
part
of
the
innova:on
ecosystem
of
ci:es.”
“Three
important
gaps
are
outlined,
which
ci:es
have
to
overcome
namely:
1. Digital
skills
gap:
that
concerns
to
the
ability
of
ci:zens
and
companies
to
master
web-­‐technologies
and
offer
solu:ons
over
the
net
2. The
crea.vity
gap:
that
separates
web
technologies
and
applica:ons
3. The
entrepreneurship
gap:
that
takes
place
between
