2. About
A few words about the tour in London
Who are the organisers ?
The 27th Région is at the origin the tour, and the agency User Studio has organised the pro-
gram. This program is co-financed by the european commission and by the attendees.
Who are the attendees ?
Half of them are elected people or civil servants for regional and local governments, in charge of
prospective, innovation, technology, social entrepreneurship, and local development.
One third comes from a think tank dedicated to technology, called Fing (Next Generation Internet
Foundation). The others works for companies such as Orange Labs.
What are they interested in?
Social innovation is mostly « social entrepreurship » in France. The activity dedicated to social
innovation and service design is more developped in UK and scandinavian countries than it is in
France : in schools, think tanks, gouvernments (local and national).
What are the values, the methods, the resultats of user-driven projects in UK ? How is social
innovation in UK now, with the crisis, as a method, a sector, a market, a know how ? How can
social innovation and design impact on policies ? What are the most interesting cases in the
fields of education, urban policy, employment, culture, etc ? What about social innovation during
the crisis, and what could be the future ?

11. Regional Council of Limousin
Location : Limoges
www.cr-limousin.fr
Famed for some of the best beef farming in the world, herds of Limousin cattle—a distinctive
chestnut red—are a common sight in the region. In addition to cattle, the region is also a major
timber producing area. The regional capital, Limoges, was once an industrial power-base, world-
renowned for its porcelain and is still a leader and innovator in electric equipment factories
(which used porcelain as an insulator originally). However, large factories are now few in number.
With a slowly rising population of just under 750,000, Limousin is the second least populated
French region in Metropolitan France after Corsica. There are fewer inhabitants in Limousin than
in the city of Marseille.
The population of Limousin is aging and, until 1999, it was declining. The Creuse department
has the oldest population of any in France. Between 1999 and 2004 the population of Limousin
increased slightly, reversing a decline for the first time in decades.
