MISSION | PURPOSE TEAM CITY LIVING LAB WHERE ARE WE OBDC WHAT IS A CITY LIVING LAB? A city is a living laboratory for innovation. A Living Lab is an environment for innovation and an approach to innovation. According to the European Network of Living Labs, a Living Lab is an open and innovative environment of "real life" circumstances, in which innovation aimed at users is part of the co-creation process for new services, products, and social infrastructure. Living labs encompass, simultaneously, social and technological dimensions in a partnership between companies, citizens, governments, and universities. It is an ecosystem where different partners work side by side, sharing knowledge while interacting with a variety of knowledge and technologies, inducing a fertile ground for innovation, research, and interdisciplinary communication. Knowledge cities (CC) Which refers to social studies, applied the Brazilian cities, regions, and neighborhoods Knowledge-based business (NBC) It is aimed at companies and sectors that drive the country's economy. Within these two areas are studies associated with the following contexts: Sustainable buildings and cities (SBC) Studies that aim to make cities inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable Capital systems (CS) It is a formal knowledge management system based on a category structure in a complete and consistent taxonomy Observation, development and tourist and territorial intelligence (ODITT) It is aimed at studying approaches, methods and techniques of observation; the use and development of observation tools and systems and the development of applied observation processes to support tourist and territorial intelligence.

Artigo escrito por membros do CityLIvingLab desvenda os segredos por trás da relação entre a qualidade do ambiente construído e a satisfação dos clientes em postos de gasolina. Artigo escrito por membros do CityLIvingLab desvenda os segredos por trás da relação entre a qualidade do ambiente construído e a satisfação dos clientes em postos de gasolina. O artigo discute o ambiente de serviços, especialmente os serviços presenciais, e como o ambiente físico influencia a percepção de qualidade e satisfação do cliente. A pesquisa propõe que melhorias no ambiente construído de um posto de gasolina podem impactar positivamente a satisfação do cliente. São apresentadas hipóteses de pesquisa relacionadas às dimensões do ambiente construído (aparência, conforto, configuração e funcionalidade) e sua relação com a satisfação do cliente. Para acessar o artigo na íntergra, clique aqui. Marcelo Benetti, pesquisador do CityLivingLab ​ "Nossos resultados evidenciam que melhorias no ambiente físico dos postos de gasolina estão diretamente ligadas à satisfação do cliente. Identificamos quatro dimensões-chave do ambiente construído, cada uma com atributos específicos que influenciam significativamente a percepção dos clientes. Essas descobertas oferecem valiosos insights para gestores, indicando áreas de oportunidade para ajustes operacionais e de atendimento ao cliente."

submissions Knowledge Cities for the Anthropocene ​ This year's theme combines the traditional WCI topics of Knowledge-Based Development and Knowledge Cities with two new topics, Knowledge for the Anthropocene and City Preparedness for the Climate Crisis. The WCI books that will be published by the time of the conference (one on each of the later two topics) set the scene for this year's sessions. Also, both books will be presented on the last day. Knowledge for the Anthropocene (K4A) Human-induced environmental impacts are bound to disrupt our way of life in deeper ways and at a wider scale than anything previously experienced by humankind. Global existential risks challenge the conditions of the Biosphere that prevailed through the Holocene, the geological epoch that saw human civilizations flourish. However, the current knowledge base seems inadequate to help us cope with such realities. What relevant knowledge will become critical to deal with deteriorating environmental conditions? How can science, technology, innovation, and education be radically transformed for adequately responding? How can societies and governments continue to function? How need our mind-frames evolve? In K4A, these and other related questions are addressed. The common purpose is to provide a general perspective on the role that knowledge – the most important leverage to human action, may need to play in the unfolding circumstances of the Anthropocene. City Preparedness for the Climate Crisis (CPCC) Contemporary urban life is the epitome of modernization, a paradigm of progress that takes the Holocene climate for granted. Moreover, it takes for granted the Biosphere conditions that have allowed human civilizations to flourish. Global existential risks challenge the viability of the Biosphere for most big species. Despite increasing warnings, most cities seem to deny the impending catastrophes and remain ill-prepared to cope with major disruptions. The 2020 Covid-19 Pandemic has dramatically exhibited limited world governance, global alert systems, response capacity, and effort coordination to deal with planetary and local emergencies. CPCC addresses the warnings, inventory of capacities and competencies, lessons learned, and value practices in creating conscience and preparing for urban anthropogenic risks. Abstracts and full papers are invited under the following including but not restrictive list of topics: ​ Knowledge-Based Development Knowledge Cities Knowledge for the Sustainable Development Goals Knowledge for the Anthropocene City Preparedness for the Climate Crisis Capital Systems Metrics for the above areas Alternative Economics Post-pandemic City Development session formats Full papers and abstracts presentation sessions (November 15, 2021 - from 16h to 19h UTC time) plenary panels with guest speakers (November 16-18, 2021 - from 16:00 to 19:00 UTC time) Book presentations with guest book authors (November 19, 2021 - from 16h to 19h UTC time) Templates for the event FULL PAPER ABSTRACT PRESENTATION submission process Submissions of full papers or extended abstracts will be accepted; Submissions of will be accepted in Portuguese, English or Spanish; SUBMISSION WEBSITE SUBMIT BY EMAIL REGISTER NOW HOW TO REGISTER publication options Special Issue: Full paper submissions will participate in the fast track of Revista Brasileira de Gestão e Inovação ( Brazilian Journal of Management & Innovation ).

Presentation The Knowledge Cities World Summit (KCWS) is an independent and global meeting of professionals, held annually, on the theme of “knowledge cities” and “knowledge-based development”. The initiative is a registered trademark of the World Capital Institute (WCI), an international think tank whose aim is to promote the understanding and application of knowledge as the most powerful lever of development. Held in conjunction with one or more organizations, the 14th edition of the Knowledge Cities World Summit (KCWS 2021) will take place virtually in Caxias do Sul, Brazil, with the partnership and organization of CityLivingLab and UCS-Universidade de Caxias do Sul. ​ The Congress aims to contribute to the emerging and vital discussions of our time on how urban centers and their regions can face challenges such as social inclusion, economic inequalities and environmental degradation through innovative knowledge-based development. ​ The Congress will provide a forum for academics, practitioners, public servants and policy makers from different parts of the world to meet and debate emerging challenges and their potential solutions. ​ Drawing on a wide range of disciplines and perspectives, it will provide you with unique opportunities to share your knowledge and experience. Authors of articles selected for presentation during the Congress will be invited to adapt their articles for submission and evaluation to the International Journal of Knowledge-Based Development and to the Revista Brasileira de Gestão e Inovação.
