Local Ecosystem Key Actors

Abstract

Effective use of technologies is strictly related to direct and ancillary supports. The reliability of technological support system is essential; and territorial development of these skills is fundamental for a trustworthy introduction of innovation. The performances of the introduced technologies depend on an appropriate support at local and enterprise level: any technology requires providers and services (HD and SW) to be maintained, repaired and set up, which means well-trained consultants and human capital by the appropriate educational system. The efficiency of the local ecosystem, which supports the introduced technologies, is determined by the skills growth and competences and the Local Ecosystem Readiness Level (LERL), required by the new introducing technology, defines it.
