The aim of the DeCoSe project was to envisage collaborative service ideas to stimulate social innovation in the context. The project was developed in conjunction with European Research funded in the framework of the 7FR called Peripheria (in which Politecnico di Milano is involved as partner) whose aim was to conceive, develop and prototype digital services to exploit future and emerging Internet technologies to promote new ways of living and new forms of consumption. The project was developed with the living lab approach, according to the definition that a living lab is a user-centered, open-innovation ecosystem, often operating in a territorial context (e.g. city, agglomeration, region, integrating concurrent research and innovation processes within a public-private people partnership). The De-CoSe team focused attention on designing future collaborative services through the combination of the potential of Internet of Things, Internet of Services and Internet of People. These types of collaborative services are based on socio-digital innovation and are capable of supporting social innovation, intended as new and sustainable ways to organize new forms of everyday life. Both teams worked on the specific context of the Politecnico di Milano arena and in order to enhance it as a smart campus, elaborated smart solutions, Toc Toc and &Co to stimulate people from the neighborhood and people from the campus.
