Our eGoose Proof of Concept - Friends refering Friends?

Dear all - its been about a week since we launched our Whatsapp based proof of concept - do contact me via Whatsapp +49 (0) 1709053671 if you would like to join.

We now have 19 members and are welcoming them as follows:

"Dear all - please again welcome <name> to our "cyber self-protection" group :) A group of (friends of) friends which is there for each other in case of cyber incidents and imminent risks - a group that will hopefully always have extremely LOW levels of activity!

"In our ecosystem we protect each other from cyber threats by telling others when we have come close to being compromised or actually have been compromised. "

<name> is a friend of <name> so please extend your trust to him. 

Rules of Engagement

1. Protect friends by encouraging them to register via SMS/WhatsApp.

2. If you think you are compromised -> SMS/Whatsapp your trusted expert for arranging a personal call to review it (this is me for the moment).

3. If you are compromised -> SMS/Whatsapp your trusted expert for (a) informing your friends on your behalf and / or (b) arranging a personal call to explore treatments.

4. If you are notified by SMS/Whatsapp from a friend and / or the trusted expert that a friend is compromised -> SMS/Whatsapp your trusted expert for arranging a personal call to review your situation."

The attached image shows our emerging network (using Gephi to visualize with default settings and a Fruchterman Reingold layout). As friend referals grow the network is by default becoming more decentral. 

In the case of a cyber safety incident / impending risk threat we can expect knowledge to diffuse along the connection paths we see. 

Below some research details about this diffusion but would be good to discuss pragmatic actions to improve these.

Network variables affecting the speed of diffusion are (Schwabe, O., Almeida, N., Schneider, L., Salvado, A. (2020) A Framework for Accelerating Innovation through Innovation Webs (in the Construction Industry). Sustainability and Automation in Smart Constructions. Proceedings of the International Conference on Automation Innovation in Construction (CIAC-2019), Leiria, Portugal. Springer ISBN 978-3-030-35533-3.)

Accelerating the Diffusion of Green Hydrogen Solutions - Introducing an Innovative Masters Thesis

Bild
The Open European Network for Enterprise Innovation is supporting an innovative Masters Thesis being conducted at the Technical University of LIsbon by a great young colleague  Lourenço Horta Correia. Please see below for more information and do feel free to reach out to him if you have ideas / can support his efforts with case studies. The image shows the first sketches of supply chain pathways and will be extended continuously to illustrate existing and planned pathways with their relevant diffusion performance and innovation opportunities. The world is facing unprecedented challenges regarding climate change and Green House Gases (GHG) emissions and the European Union is responding to these issues setting an ambitious yet attainable action plan for a systematic transformation towards a carbon-neutral continent by 2050. Green Hydrogen – meaning hydrogen produced from renewable energies – will be a major player for a sustainable energy transition as an energy carrier with numerous...

Design Principle #4 for 84% Innovation Adoption – Technology Readiness Level

Bild
This series of blog posts describes the principles relevant for designing an innovation for rapid adoption by 84% of a target group. 84% adoption is the threshold for achieving sustainable change. The underlying theory stems from the "invisible college" around Rogers, E.M. (2003) “Diffusion of Innovations.” which reminds us that adopters are grouped as Innovators 2%, Early Adopters 14%, Early Majority 34%, Late Majority 34% and Laggards 16%. Designing innovations (and the change intended by them) to reach the Late Majority is a very different game than that typically "played" (which actually only focuses on the Innovators and Early Adopters). Such "designs" depend on understanding our own body of work which skilfully integrates systems thinking, living systems principles, complexity thinking etc. None of the design principles we will discuss are “innovative” – it their blending and orchestration to achieve 84% adoption that is the art of “deep diffusion”...

Forecasting Whole Life Cycle Cost Uncertainty of EU Municipalities - Consolidator/Marie Curie Proposals

Bild
T ogether with Lisbon University Instituto Superior Técnico Department of Civil Engineering and relevant research team (to be determined), we will be preparing an ERC Consolidator grant request for submission in mid-October 2021 with funding decision expected in March 2022 (see https://erc.europa.eu/news/calls-2022-tentative-dates ). This proposal will include one or more post-doctoral positions for which we will set up individual / parallel Marie Skłodowska-Curie European Fellowship applications (see https://ec.europa.eu/research/mariecurieactions/actions/individual-fellowships_en and https://ec.europa.eu/research/mariecurieactions/actions/get-funding_en ). Title: “A Framework for Forecasting Whole Life Cycle Cost Uncertainty of EU Municipalities” Abstract: “Directly and indirectly people and societies task nations and cities to aspire to the UN Sustainable Development Goals. A primary challenge on this journey is forecasting the related whole life cycle costs as robustly as poss...
