LLio

Since 2012, the research centre has been offering its expertise in open and collaborative innovation throughout Québec and internationally. Whether it's for a company, an organization, a community, an association, a network or an agency, by involving its users, LLIO stimulates collective intelligence and fosters the emergence of open innovation at a time when it is essential to innovate and stand out. It intervenes through support in projects using the Living Lab device (for longer-term approaches) and through a collaborative and open approach with working groups. This is used in the context of intensive approaches such as "design thinking" or at open and collaborative innovation events. In the past year, LLIO has supported various Living Lab projects and hosted several open innovation events.

LLIO has several projects to its name that focus on collective intelligence, grassroots development and the use of systematic processes to facilitate user engagement and stimulate innovation. The research centre is a member of the European Network of Living Labs (ENOLL) and the Francophonie Living Labs network. It also participates in Fablabs Québec and the Table des Living Labs Québécois.
