What are the Living Labs in COGITO project?
In COGITO, the establishment of the Living Labs took place in January 2021. The aim of this activity  is to collect important feedback from COGITO’s stakeholders located close to the pilot sites (Denmark and Spain). This way, COGITO aims to improve the design and development of the project’s toolbox, promote the outcomes and engage target groups into the process. Consortium Partners have built a methodology and action plan to set particular workshops within the project duration and invite selected participants to join the Living Labs’ activities.

The Consortium Partners decided to organize workshops to collect user requirements for the COGITO system.

Important results
The workshops’ groups identified an extended list of stakeholders, broadly aligned with the initial list of stakeholders defined by COGITO industrial partners. Main stakeholders were identified with regards to the COGITO Use Cases. As deduced from participants’ discussions, the main challenges are faced when planning and executing workflows and they include: information quality and flow related problems, project management difficulties, quality of input information, and technology-related problems.
