Gothenburg Green City Zone leads the way towards zero-emissions transports

Gothenburg Green City Zone
Gothenburg Green City Zone

Currently in development, Gothenburg Green City Zone is a world first: an initiative by a number of major stakeholders including Volvo Cars to build a climate-neutral transportation system in a large geographical area of Gothenburg. New technology will be tested to allow this part of Gothenburg to have 100% emission-free transport modes by 2030

The initiative was taken jointly by the City of Gothenburg (through Business Region Göteborg), Volvo Cars, and RISE Research Institutes of Sweden. Interest and involvement in Gothenburg Green City Zone has been great, with Chalmers University of Technology, the School of Business, Economics and Law at the University of Gothenburg, the Swedish Exhibition and Congress Centre, the City of Mölndal and Johanneberg Science Park on board so far. And there will be many more of us – Gothenburg Green City Zone is an inclusive venture that welcomes everyone who wants to take part, in whatever way, in creating sustainable solutions for the Gothenburg region, and in spreading them to the wider world.

The purpose with this initiative is to create new ways of collaborating in order to develop transport solutions that can contribute to a climate neutral transport zone. The final target is a climate neutral transport system in the city by 2030.

The number of residents, workplaces, tourists and visitors in Gothenburg is set to increase dramatically the coming 10 years. This fact makes it a challenge to create an efficient, climate neutral transport system that works for all.

The new solutions will be developed by engaging partners in the city municipality, industry, research institutes, Universities and not the least, citizens. The final goal is a climate-neutral transport system that improves the health and well-being of all citizens -a Green city zone.

Analysis on changes, interaction Human - Technology - Organization

Name of service (page headline, shown in promos – maximum of 70 characters incl. spaces): Analysis of changes, interaction Human - Technology - Organization Lead (include SEO-words and the main benefits for your target groups. Stick to one paragraph, maximum 2-3 sentences):

In industry and in other operations, progress is rapid and changes are constantly ongoing. In a workplace, human, technology and organization interact. This interaction creates the work environment and needs to be taken into account in the event of changes.

Purpose/Benefit:

In order to handle change processes from a holistic perspective where humans, technology and organization (HTO) are included, a systematic approach to analysis, evaluation, solution and actions is required. What can be seen as beneficial from an efficiency or operational perspective can become inefficient and unprofitable in the long term if employees risk their health. Often, risks arise in the interaction between humans, technology and organization. By broadening the perspective on change, one avoids getting caught up in only a single cause or solution to the consequences, risks and problems that may arise. 

Method (what/which methods are used to perform the service):

According to the regulations on “Systematic work environment work” (AFS 2001: 1), an impact assessment with risk assessment is required for all types of changes in the business that may affect the work environment. We offer an approach in four stages to work from an HTO perspective on planned changes in operations. The approach is based on various research and development projects and experiences. The method includes a description of important work environment factors to take into account at the task and work content level as well as overall working conditions.

Delivery (what does the client get after performed service – e.g. a report, certificate etc.):

We offer workshops with mapping, analysis and guidance from an HTO perspective in your business. Content and scope are based on your needs.

Återtillverkning av gjutgods genom pågjutning

ÅSAPÅG
Gjutning av järn i sandform

Projektidén är att utveckla och verifiera en cirkulär modell för återtillverkning av komplexa gjutna komponenter genom pågjutning av nya funktionsskikt. Detta för att i högre grad behålla förädlingsvärdet och möjliggöra komplexa multimaterial-produkter som kan cirkulera med små resursförluster.

Division: Division Material och industri

Cirkulära materialflöden är sedan länge en integrerad del av affärsmodellen för svenska stålgjuterier, men en stor del av förädlingsvärdet går förlorat vid omsmältning och nedgradering av stålet genom föroreningar och förluster i skrothanteringen och återvinningsprocessen. En cirkulär modell för återtillverkat gjutgods som i högre grad behåller förädlingsvärdet i både material och komponent och fungerar även för komplexa multimaterial-produkter har potential att radikalt ställa om gjuteribranschens fokus från generell materialåtervinning till specifik återtillverkning. Detta leder i förlängningen en förändrad affärsmodell där leverantören successivt kan övergå från att sälja en specifik produkt till att dynamiskt tillhandahålla en tjänst i dialog med slutanvändaren. Projektet bidrar vidare till de svenska miljömålen genom att på ett väsentligt sätt öka resurseffektiviteten över gjutna stålkomponenters livscykel.

Projektidéns koncept är hittills oprövat i en svensk och internationell kontext. Den primära orsaken till detta torde vara att nödvändiga drivkrafter i form av krav på resurseffektiv hållbarhet hittills har saknats inom detta branschsegment. Sverige har alltså förutsättningar att bli ett föregångsland i omställningen till cirkulära affärsmodeller för gjutna komponenter.

Follow-up and support for Vinnova's program Universal design

Collaboration support Universal design

RISE has been given the task to follow up on Vinnova's program focused on universal design (a governmental assignment from 2017-2020). The aim of the program has been to ensure that organisational development, environments and services are universally designed, so that they become accessible and useful to all people no matter social affiliation.

Universal Design

Universal design ensures that the development of, for example, activities, environments and services, are designed for human diversity and everyone's participation.

Working with universal design strengthens the conditions for a society that is as accessible as possible for everyone, regardless of functional ability, age, gender, ethnicity or other social affiliation.

Vinnova has financed about 30 projects between 2017-2020 within the program initiative Universal design/Accessibility design, of which 20 are in progress and 13 are completed. To understand in what way the projects have contributed to the purpose of the investment and whether the projects have the potential to contribute to a positive impact at a systematic level, an initial follow-up of the program is needed. Previous experience of norm-changing projects, such as projects concerning cities' ability to innovate and adapt, shows that it is also positive to support collaboration and coordination between projects while they are ongoing.

Purpose and goals

The overall purpose of the assignment is to follow up Vinnova's government assignment on universal design / accessibility design for 2017-2020 and to produce a basis for Vinnova's feedback. The goal of the follow-up is that opportunities, obstacles and challenges are made visible and highlighted regionally and nationally and form the basis for policy changes and implementation. The assignment also intends to support the assignment and its projects in general in terms of collaboration both within the projects and between the projects. The collaboration support shall contribute to utilization, dissemination, exchange of experience and learning, as well as innovation-promoting initiatives.

The follow up thus stands on two legs

1. Provide documentation that describes, synthesizes and summarizes knowledge and lessons learned from the projects within the program. 

2. Collaborative support that promotes learning and innovation ability but also enhances opportunities, obstacles and challenges visible in the work with universal design from a larger system perspective.

In conclusion, the follow-up will highlight both obstacles and opportunities for universal design, which will act as support for increased accessibility in cities 'and communities', activities, environments and services. Part of the goal is that knowledge and use of universal design as a strategic tool for socially sustainable community building in Swedish planning practice has increased.

Stockholm Digital Care
kvinna visar något på mobilen för äldre dam

Stockholm Digital Care drevs under 5 år, 2016-2020, och var ett tillväxtprojekt för att stötta utvecklingen av välfärdsteknik mot äldre.

Partner, ansvarig för Utvecklingsarenan
Completed
Digitalisering E-Hälsa Internet of Things Offentlig sektor Sensorer och sensorsystem
Region Stockholm
5 år
Division: Division Digitala system och samhällsomställning

I projektet skapade vi en brygga mellan utbud och efterfrågan på ny välfärdsteknik. Dvs mellan entreprenörer och beställarsidan/behovsägarna där vi bidrog till utveckling av behovsanpassade och mer köpbara lösningar och även till en ökad kunskap och förståelse för utmaningar och möjligheter inom området välfärdsteknik. Vi hjälpte företag och offentlig verksamhet att förstå varandras förutsättningar för att kunna göra goda affärer.

I projektet skapade vi en neutral utvecklingsarena där entreprenörer och kommuner kunde ha ett enkelt utbyte och samtal kring vad som behövdes inom utveckling av välfärdsteknik. RISE hade en betydande del av projektet och ansvarade för denna utvecklingsarena som tillsammans med testmiljöerna skapade en helhet i utvecklingsflödet. Från att öka kunskapen inom en mängd olika områden, nätverkande i branschen och individuell coaching av företag till att genomföra tester i livinglab och erbjuda användarpaneler med specifika och relevanta kompetenser som verktyg för utveckling och förädling av lösning. 

Projektet var ett samverkansprojekt mellan tre kommuner, ett kommunförbund, en region och RISE (se ruta till höger). Projektet var delfinansierat av deltagande samt EU:s regionala tillväxtfond.

I projektet jobbade vi med:

  • Coaching av entreprenörer/företag för att öka deras förutsättning att ta fram behovsanpassade och köpbara lösningar
  • I början av projektet visade vi kommuner i regionen vilken teknik som fanns och inspirerade dem till att se välfärdsteknik som en möjlighet i välfärdsuppdraget
  • Branschunikt nätverk med ca 150 företag/organisationer
  • Vi genomförde 20 öppna nätverksträffar för lärande och nätverkande 
  • Testmiljöer med testledare i Huddinge kommun, Nacka kommun och Stockholms Stad/Skärholmen
  • Tester genom living lab både i hemmiljö och på särskilt boende 
  • Tester genom paneler och workshops med behovsägare, användare och relevanta yrkesroller framtagna för varje unikt test. 
  • Återkommande fysiska och digitala seniorpaneler
  • Utveckling av testkompetens och digitaliseringsmognad hos deltagande kommuner/testmiljöer
  • Inspirationsföreläsningar till beslutsfattare, medarbetare /verksamheter och användare
  • Framtidsinspirerade dialoger och samverkan med andra forskningsprojekt 
  • Samverkan med andra SME-stödjande organisationer och projekt både externt och inom RISE

Några framgångsfaktorer och nyttor vi såg i projektet var:

Framgångsfaktorer

  • Ingen eller mycket låg ingångströskel
  • Bollplank med kompetent testkund
  • Insyn hos kunden/verksamheten – förstå kontexten
  • Ärliga utan värdering
  • Neutral partner – ”ofarlig” och enkel kontakt med företag för offentliga aktörer
  • Processmetod från utvecklingsarena till testmiljö
  • Erbjuda test mot rätt målgrupp
  • Erbjuda rätt företag till rätt testmiljö

Nyttor

  • Erbjudande och affärsidé utmanas
  • Fördjupad kunskap genom samtal med olika yrkesroller, seniorer m fl
  • Nätverksträff som skapar fokus på utmaning
  • Dialoger och test hjälper till i prioritering av funktionalitet
  • Ökad och ny kunskap om behov av utveckling av ny funktionalitet
  • Kunskap om möjlighet att arbeta på andra sätt
  • Kunskap om aktörer och innovationer på marknaden

 Erfarenheter och lärdomar från projektet väver vi in i nya projekt och aktiviteter med nya samarbetsparter.

Transformation Partnership

Name of service (page headline, shown in promos – maximum of 70 characters incl. spaces): Transformation Partnership Lead (include SEO-words and the main benefits for your target groups. Stick to one paragraph, maximum 2-3 sentences):

Transformation Partnerships, where RISE curates the synergic work of complex constellations of partners, gathered around a societal challenge, aimed at engaging in Transforming Practices to enable systemic change.

Purpose/Benefit:

Introduction to the Service

Nowadays, we observe a shift in the way the work of most companies and institutions is carried out. This shift is happening, due, for instance, to the digital transformation or the proliferation of AI, where relationships and agendas are becoming more and more interconnected and therefore complex. Actors that could work independently only a few years ago, today feel the need to connect and collaborate. Different agendas have to relate: social, economic, political agendas, as well as the civil society’s agenda; all of them have to also connect to the higher goal of environmental sustainability.  

If we think about urban planning, for instance, and the possibility of having sensing and acting cities (so called smart cities), we immediately see how it is now necessary that all actors involved in this system are not working separately, but collaborate to produce transformations where all points of view are taken into account.  

We are at the presence of systemic challenges that need to be acted upon with an approach that leads to Systemic Change. 

This is a relatively new way of working and all sectors are dedicated to increasing and boosting the innovation and transformation capacities, related to Systemic Change. 

At RISE, systemic transformation is in our DNA, being the Swedish multidisciplinary research institute with the governmental mandate of catalyzing collaborations. We have matured methodologies and tools that effectively contribute to increase capacities of Systemic Change through Transformation Partnerships. 

Purpose 

A transformation partnership is built upon design principles that stimulate new ways of thinking, acting, collaborating, planning and implementing transformations.  

It is meant both for the challenges that our partners face within their organisation or in their external activities, in particular in multi-stakeholders situations.  

The mentoring supports the opening up of the challenge in a holistic way, by taking into account the broader societal context, and it provides ways to map and collaboratively make sense of it.  

Transformation Partnerships offers tools and methods to: 

  • navigate complex challenges;  
  • define the foundational values that will drive the transformation; 
  • support and boost multi-stakeholder collaboration across organisations; 
  • go forward with a shared value-based vision and concrete action plans to implement a roadmap for systemic change. 

Benefits 

In a Transformation Partnership, RISE will coach and support you in a specific transformation process, you will acquire methods and tools that will empower you towards: 

  1. Be(coming) Change: learning to have the right mindset towards change, which implies attitudes like staying curious and embracing risk and complexity; being able to unpack end expand on the values that the transformation will empower.  
  2. Work Change: making sense of your challenge, understanding each other in the stakeholder constellation that is operating the transformation; exploring the challenge from different perspectives (micro, meso, macro, chrono); creating future scenarios, through exploring experiential proposals; being able to regularly reflect and assess the process and implement the findings in the following iterations.  
  3. Realise Change: creating concrete action plans to kickstart change/innovation/new pilot.  

Thanks to the iterative and explorative characteristics of the tools used, you will be at ease in  exploring unknown territories, move beyond the standard, and truly touch upon new perspectives that can be used when a durable transformation is necessary.  

Method (what/which methods are used to perform the service):

The tools and methods that are offered through the transformation partnerships, have been developed at RISE, in close collaboration with Eindhoven University of Technology. They are a result of a year long applied research in Transforming Practices and Systemic Change. They capitalise on dozens of applications’ experiences across a broad number of sectors. They are grounded on design research and they promote a prototype-driven approach.  

Delivery (what does the client get after performed service – e.g. a report, certificate etc.):

Depending on the partners’ requests and operating context, Transformation Partnerships consist out of a specifically designed set-up of workshops. During these sessions, mentors from RISE curate the process and coach the group of people through it.  

The workshops are designed upon request, to fit the purpose and the motivation of your  organisation. Depending on the chosen duration of the collaboration, the process can result in a final report, specifying an action plan; it can have a follow-up to discuss the finding, reflect and assess the process.  

A possible longer collaboration with RISE can also be a result of this service.

Digiphysical care contacts increased the security of people in nursing

Digiphysical care - Civic Tech
Physician from KRY by his computer

The project Digiphysical care contacts created security for citizens who live in nursing homes and their relatives in the region of Västerbotten. The project seeked to address the challenge and increase the confidence of these citizens in health and care through the combination of digital and physical care.

Sweden's health care is facing major challenges. Demographics with an aging population, difficulties with the provision of skills and the conversion to digital systems provide opportunities, but also place great demands on management, routines and collaboration.

People living in nursing homes are usually elderly and multi-ill with great physical or cognitive difficulties to cope with their own housing and need continuous help and support. For these people, physician continuity is an important part of the treatment, which is unfortunately lacking in many rural communities.

With the project, we wanted to create security for citizens who live in nursing homes and their relatives in the Västerbotten Region's area of ​​southern Lapland. This group is severely affected by not having a continuity in doctor contacts, which is because they are forced to use reluctant doctors in the area to deal with the shortage of doctors.

The project seeked to address the challenge and increase the confidence of these citizens in care and care through the combination of digital and physical care services.

Project partners in addition to RISE were Glesbygdsmedicinskt Centrum, Region Västerbotten, Malå municipality, KRY and the Civic Tech platform.

Vinnova's Civic tech program: Digital services for increased trust between citizens and the public sector fund this project.
