    Abstract

    How to combine research knowledge across disciplines is a challenge when studying and developing services in industry and public organizations. This paper presents a new kind of workshop process aiming at co-creation in a research network. We piloted the process at VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland during January - May 2009. The originality of our approach is in combining the methods of foresight and developmental impact evaluation. Furthermore, the process builds up a collaborative network and its research strategy from below, from above and together with customers and collaborators. Our paper describes the pilot process phase by phase and the first results and experiences from the workshops.
