ProInternet (1) is a new project of Leonardo da Vinci (2 ) Program of the European Commission which was given to create a network of actors3 in the field of jobs (4 ) and training dedicated to the Internet. The difficulties (5), indeed, are numerous: the recruitment6, qualification, labour market perceptions, the adequacy of a traditional education faced with completely new forms of thinking in technology (7 ) and knowledge transfer (8) ... Will be members of this network all key actors in domain of knowledge technologies:
* The Economic leaders in the field of the most innovative companies (9), from multinationals to SMEs who wish to bring training and adequacy thereof to the needs of businesses and start-ups.
* The training actors who strive to be agents for change in the world of education and create new institutions and new places therefor10.
* The regional leaders (11) and elected representatives of local authorities who are now at the forefront – they are intended to fill a primordial role as a result of new relations between territories and knowledge -
* Foresight (12) experts who also occupy a very special place in terms of co-construction of future scenarios in the field of knowledge economy.
The nature of relations between actors in our network of jobs of Internet will be multiple, this with and through anticipated synergies across Europe, to a level clearly international - with the support of the European Commission - in particular by contributing to policy development (13). The continued cooperation is facilitated by the scientific committee which constitute a major instrument of dissemination of analysis and the work of the project partners.
The responsible of the project and its dissemination are convinced of the importance of its impact on the creation of new jobs (14), which we often can not foresee today only the profile.
For all this, information work and communication will be considerable: the relations and cooperation with international institutions therefore are crucial to the development of the Pro-Internet project.
The strategy in this area was built and presented at the seminar organized at UNESCO on March 11 and the one held at the French Ministry of European and International Affairs on June 11, 2010 for example and in conjunction with the OECD (15) representatives, the Committee of Regions and the European Commission.
The next events will continue this approach, including especially the presentation of the project and the Network to the European Parliament in Brussels on September 30 (after including the one that has been held in the Parliament at Strasbourg, July 8, 2010).
The hundreds of stakeholders who attended the first project activities and the creation of the Network have agreed to stress the need ambition of the proposal to all stakeholders and all those who wish to join us.

Notes

 

1  Thematic Networks Project - Program: LLP - Leonardo Da Vinci - Agreement Nº 2009-2204/001-001.
2 The "Leonardo da Vinci" program is one of the sectoral programs of the global program of education and training throughout life. It is designed as a tool that can give impetus to the training and education systems in Europe. It allows the mobility of people who wish to enjoy a professional experience in Europe. It facilitates the exchange of good practices between responsibles of training and is also an opportunity to create new tools and methodologies of training at European level.
3 The "economy of relations" that develops today is based largely on networks of expertise able to change traditional habits, especially in the field of transmission of knowledge: seems to be the need for a methodology based on international visibility from the different actors of the concerned sectors and an attitude of scientific rigor.
4 It should obviously take into account the current needs and trends of many jobs that are emerging today. The project will thus be the result of a round trip between a pragmatic present and a real projection into the future.
5 The targets can not be subject to a full consensus, but contrary reflect the diversity - even opposition - of cultural horizons involved in the project. This explains that only the major institutions can help to create a common vision.
6 The recruitment has begun to change, but, especially in some countries, has not integrated all the necessary changes to the needs of companies that have significantly altered the profiles of their jobs. The social networks reflect thus very well at the same time change and the difficulties of writing the profiles of these new jobs.
7 The changes in the ways of thinking about technology requires a step back on the scale of the perception of these mutations and the integration of this perception in the social and cultural life. Here we must think about the history of the last ten millennia in relation to technology.
8 The PIN project takes place necessarily in an analysis of the economy knowledge without which it would naturally be quite useless to discuss new jobs and, what is worse, their certifification. The major part of initiatives in this area are now subject to attempts to take on the matter on the part of actors unprepared.
9 It is impossible to classify the companies according to a criterion of greatness: it would be indeed in this case an archaic categorization. Large companies, in fact, may have very different attitudes between them and sometimes, however, identical to those of small and medium-sized structures.
10 The creation of knowledge centers such as Extremadura or also the Living Labs dedicated to these issues clearly illustrate the way to go towards the development of new centers of learning and experimentation in this field. The mapping of Knowledge is thus an essential tool for the implementation of a real economic development.
11 A history of Fifteen-year of digital cities, territories and neighborhoods of knowledge show indeed what should be our goal in this project of Leonardo da Vinci and especially it is essential to call upon the local players to speak and to underline the importance of their presence in the heart of our network of jobs and training of the Internet.
12 One of the main objectives of the dissemination of the project will be to create ecosystems of prospective in which the jobs of Internet will be observed in interaction with all sectors of economic and social life, such as that the Territories of Tomorrow Foundation is currently helping to do in Luxembourg in close relationship with multiple Luxembourg institutions.
13 A European project is normally intended to be limit overall the border of the European Union, but for this project our interlocutors of the Commission suggested in its tendency to fit into devices of assistance to development: many contacts were established in this sense in Africa, Latin America and Asia.
14 The European projects of today and for tomorrow need to be more specific and provide a real gains for the economy that is being to built and how we see the genesis. Our younger interlocutors, such as the youth european deputy and parlimentary from the project partners, expect from the project partners - and they intend to pay close attention- a real commitment through the outline of new professionnal profiles and the formulation of recommendations aiming a rapid implementation.
15 One of the issues raised during the debate at the european Parliament on July 8 is to be avoided at all costs the proliferation of observatories and platforms of all kinds in the field of transmission of knowledge, a temptation to which Europe has often been unsuccessful. It is absolutely essential to avoid the dispersal of energy: our network will thus be particularly careful to include in its scope the largest possible number of initiatives such as the "Erasmus for apprentices". It should also have an equal consideration with respect to initiatives such as the OECD on the management of skills or, similarly, to the initiatives of some ministries. The network of cultural institutes are also intended to unite in the formation of this network, all that is now developing a true "knowledge diplomacy" and that the territories are building more and more of their strategies attractiveness from their offers of skills.

Living Lab NEW MEDIA is a creation of Cinema and Audiovisual northern Paris Multimedia Pole (http://www.lepole.org) with the participation of Empreinte Multimedia (www.empreinte.com) and Foundation Tomorrow Territories (www.territories-of-tomorrow.org). It represents 300 companies (technology providers, broadcasters, producers, reserchers) and 80% of French TV actors. The pole is a leading place in France for New Media. Its mission are :

• - Develop the region's attractiveness by creating a “new media silicon valley in Europe”
• - Maintain a permanent hight level of creativity by a mesh of actors, users and researchers
• - Create an conducive regional environment for new media exchange, developments and research

The pole has been reinforced in its goals and wishes to extend its strategy of mesh fabric in West Paris, including the city of Neuilly, where a range of activities is emerging (and where the Living Lab wants to develop a large antenna in conjunction with many local actors). It would also, and this is our main membership motivation for Living Lab label;

• - Add projects within the European Network of Living Labs
• - Make available to other Living Labs own skills
• - Give rise to a large network of spaces European innovation in the field of new media.

The next meeting organized at UNESCO by the Territories of Tomorrow Foundation is also soon devoted to the premise of this networking.

DESCRIPTION AND CHARACTERISTICS
At this northen Paris spot is located the NEW MEDIA living lab, created buy the association of “Cinema and Audiovisual northern Paris Multimedia Pole” (http://www.lepole.org). His story is really old, like the action and the synergy of the partners carrying the project.
In 1888, in the north of Paris, Edouard Branly has realized the first radio broadcast experience.
In 1990s, at the same location, are based the european precursors of multimedia, experimenting the first digital video uses.
In 2000 the department of Seine-Saint-Denis with the NGO Arenotech has founded the A3P prefiguration, followed in 2003 by the “Cinema and Audiovisual northern Paris Multimedia Pole”, to develop and promote activity, creativity and networking for the new media actors: companies, universities, research laboratories, training institutions and local authorities.
In 2010, the pole is a strategic actor; founding member of Cap Digital, the global competitiveness hub, Ficam associate member (Cinema and Audiovisual Media Industries Federation) and representing 300 companies (technology providers, broadcasters, producers, post production ...) and 80% of French TV platforms and producers; the pole is a leading place in France for New Media.
Northen Paris has a high density of creative and imaginative actors; in 2003 was created an association to accelerate the economic and social development of the video and new media industry
on the territory of Seine Saint-Denis.
Many institutions; the community of agglomeration of Plaine Commune, the department of Seine Saint-Denis, the city of Saint Ouen, the competitiveness cluster Cap Digital have founded this collaborative network, creator of values, experiences and exchanges for new media.
The NEW MEDIA Living Lab associated with numerous actors (media, producers, software and hosting editors, universities, municipalities) wish to establish labeling their initiative as a living
laboratory, with the following objectives:
1. Promote and extend a multi disciplinary platform for research, development and innovation to fortify dynamic initiatives and ITC experiments in relation to users, with returns of uses locally,
2. Develop the sharing of knowledge, best practices and synergies between economic actors (media, ICT companies, industry) and knowledge (universities, training center, schools, institutions),
3. Forge a ”new industrial culture”, by testing solutions with operators, media, ITV actors, in relation to the public, to create a dynamic and creative research with a broad ecosystem of actors.
4. Intensify international exchange with new media actors through the mesh of living labs

 

The Living Lab NEW MEDIA has a range of skills and broad stakeholder, which allows him to make a very consistent and open project.

Un Village de la Connaissance

Du «Prince des curieux» du 17e siècle au Laboratoire des usages du 21e siècle
• passer d’une communauté de connaissances du 17e siècle telle que pratiquée par Nicolas Claude Fabri de Peiresc, à une connaissance partagée locale et internationale grâce aux technologies actuelles.
• faire connaître des corpus procédant de différentes disciplines des sciences exactes, naturelles et humaines (archéologie, numismatique, botanique,…) et susciter des contributions dans une démarche interactive et citoyenne.

Centre Europen des Nouvelles Technologies (CENT)

Le premier centre des nouvelles technologies va commencer à sortir de terre au printemps prochain pas loin d’ici, en Ardèche. Il peut à nos yeux tout à fait préfigurer quelques-unes des traits du visage de l’Auvergne dans une génération. Je souhaiterais donc prendre quelques instants pour vous l’évoquer de manière à développer l’approche la plus concrète possible.
Ce village hébergera des activités qui utilisent les NTIC comme moyen clé de création de valeur ajoutée. Ces activités s’exerceront principalement dans les domaines suivants : recherche et développement en matière de commerce électronique, services à distance, assistance à la personne, conquête de marchés pour PME - TPE.
De tels villages regrouperont donc tout à la fois les entreprises NTIC, les professions de services et du tourisme, les commerces nécessaires au quotidien, les logements indispensables aux professionnels, chercheurs et personnels qui pourront ainsi habiter et travailler sur place.
Grâce à sa qualité architecturale et environnementale (parcs, jardins, étangs-piscines...), le village permettra des séjours centrés sur la remise en forme, le sport, la santé et le tourisme.
Cet apport de clientèle amènera des ressources supplémentaires en termes d’activités et de commerces et une animation permanente, procurant ainsi une grande qualité de vie aux professionnels des NTIC et des services.
Ce village a pour objectif fondamental de :
faire venir sur le site des entreprises d’activité internationale à fort taux de croissance, créer des emplois de toutes qualifications, créer des activités nouvelles sur un secteur qui vit actuellement du textile et de la vigne, créer de nouvelles ressources.
Des logements et locaux « intelligents » sont prévus afin d’apporter efficacité et confort à leurs utilisateurs spécifiques. La qualité de vie des chercheurs et personnels a été placée au centre du concept.

Pas de déplacements quotidiens - et donc moins de fatigue, plus de temps disponible pour les loisirs et la famille, la possibilité de déjeuner en famille à midi, le véhicule non indispensable au quotidien contribuent ainsi à créer un environnement professionnel enrichissant et gratifiant
Les infotechnologies deviennent de la sorte le cœur de métier du village. Les entreprises et professionnels qui s’installeront dans le village auront pour spécificité de travailler à distance.

Les objectifs du projet :
* Faire découvrir et démontrer à partir des expériences de la grotte de Gargas et celles d’un Centre d’Interprétation Numérique ce qu’apportent les TIC en termes de valorisation touristique et culturelle auprès des publics
* Concevoir, expérimenter  et développer des techniques à la pointe de l’innovation par l’interprétation  et le transfert des images pariétales préhistoriques, mais aussi l’élaboration d’un grand projet d’ « abbaye numérique » (il s’agit de faire de l’Abbaye de l’Escaladieu un centre européen de la connaissance sur la thématique « TIC et Patrimoine »).
* Etablir des partenariats avec les chercheurs, les entreprises spécialisées, les universités
* Echanger des expériences et des connaissances avec les autres sites sur d’autres territoires.
* Transmettre aux usagers (jeune public, grand public, professionnels, amateurs) l’image, l’information, la connaissance et tester, évaluer ces modes de transmission.
* Générer :
o des activités technologiques culturelles de l’image et une amélioration qualitative de l’offre touristique
o la création d’entreprises TIC
* Bénéficier de ce label pour ouvrir encore nos investigations, trouver d’autres partenaires, monter d’autres projets et accéder à de nouveaux financements…

Background

Objectives

The activities foreseen in this Action include:
2. Design and development of Living Labs for turning Migration into an opportunity for sustainable livelihoods. This activity cluster will establish METRIM Living Labs as the open-innovation, user based enabling environment for the integration of relevant and useful functionality to include all dimensions of the needs and requirements of the citizens; that will function as innovation environments for the creation, testing and dissemination of ICT tools and multi-lingual platforms that will enhance the value chain of all economic and social activities. It will also facilitate international Living Labs pilot projects and development programmes among rural communities, local authorities, NGOs, private sector, research and development institutions and individuals.

Timeframe for the Action

Un projet original de formation initiale autour des métiers du développement territorial (1)
• Regroupement dans un bâtiment commun de toutes les formations universitaires en droit, économie, géographie sur le développement territorial
• Ouverture prévue en septembre 2011
• Au cœur d’une dynamique locale de recherches sur les questions du territoire (Universités, enseignement supérieur et recherche agronomique)
Un projet original de formation initiale autour des métiers du développement territorial (2)
• Plusieurs éléments d’originalité dans le projet pédagogique:
– 1) Lien avec les collectivités locales tant pour le financement que les modalités pédagogiques
– 2) Mise en place de formations ciblées directement en lien avec les besoins des collectivités locales
– 3) Volonté de mobiliser l’économie de la connaissance au cœur des démarches de développement durable (NTIC)
