new ideas are generated and a legal framework for the free flow of information is created. Specifically, the partners are supported at several stages of the Table 3 Networked foresight activities in Rijkswaterstaat.
The integration of new partners with additional competences, ideas and insights broaden the innovation potential of the network. 4. 2. 5. Networked foresight activities Futures research activities are conducted in particular within the innovation management unit of EICT.

The idea of‘technological determinism''which consideer technology as the prime mover in transformation, and which propagates the industry's‘push'perspectiive has dominated the theoretical debate for several decades.
users do not have a clear-cut idea of what they require, want or need. Limonnar and de Koning, 2005:
users can for example generate unique and valuable ideas for future products (Kristensson et al. 2004). ) User-driven innovation should
Instead, users should be involved from the idea stage right up to the postlauunc evaluation stage. Furthermore, as userdriive innovation deals with those user insights (needs, expectations etc.

By combining the wild user ideas with the results from the desk research, a list of 80 mobile applications was created.
and/or ideas and tried to group the long list into some clearly distinguishable application clusters.
A possible explannatio for this may be found in the somewhat abstrrac description of the application ideas
which served to translate possible futures into a schema that is both comprehensible and actionable, a high level of imagination and openness to new ideas,
a practical understanding that not every idea will achieve immediate impact, but may be used at a later date,
and learning by providing safe spaces for new ideas to emerge and existing knowledge to be combined in novel ways.
In fact, FTA can provide safe spaces for new ideas to emerge and be experimented with. But this certainly also requires greater emphasis on an FTA

The main ideas and designed strategy on how to implement out-of-the-box thinking at FINEP are shown in Fig. 3. A vision of a possible, successful future for FINEP,
The reasoning behind the central idea is described in Fig. 3. Figure 3. Strategies aiming to promote out-of-the-box thinking.
The idea was to explore existing knowledge and the different possibilities, which emerged regarding the future,
The MOST propagated the idea that China should pursue the idea of‘indigenous innovation 'or‘homegrown innovation'and strive to reduce China's dependence on foreign Technology research priority setting in China. 267 (Mei and Luo 2005).

As such, guidance can be considered to be an interactive and cumulative process of exchanging ideas between technology producers, users and many other actors..
as well as in contributing to the coordination of national and local research and innovation policies towards joint goals (IDEA Consult 2010).

More than creating spaces for sharing ideas alone, FTA can foster experimentation and learning, and allow decisions to be shaped within wider settings through new inclusive and participatory governance approaches.

The exchange of scientific information and sharing of ideas across borders have been essential to the progress of science.
The outcome of the web consultation was 174 separate ideas for key drivers from 82 individuals from more than 30 countries.
in Section 2 we discuss the idea of systemicity and its connections to foresiigh and forward-looking policy design.
In the field of foresight, the idea of systemicity, and especially the anticipation of potential system failures, has become a key rationale.
The idea of IPRM is to integrate the analysis of technological change and the analysis of the wider societal setting and to enable systematic analysis of future-oriented ideas that could spring either from technological development, policy practices or more generic societal development.
IPRM builds on two cultures of roadmapping (on roadmapping, see Barker and Smith 1995; Kostoff and Schaller 2001;
It is based on an idea that roadmaps are like visual narratives that describe the most critical paths of future developments (Phaal and Muller 2009.
This idea links the strategy roadmapping to organization and strategy studies, especially to strategy crafting (Whittington and Cailluet 2008;
The key idea of a transformation roadmap is to connect the development of technologies and innovations to a wider societal sphere.
by the ideas it has created that could be potentially important for multiple stakeholders or by the amount of new linkages among the stakeholders formed during the process.

Respondents may be inclined to contribute their personal interests rather than results from open thinking (even with ideas which compete with their own interests.
As conferences are focused often more on new ideas the assessment of discussions can be an interesttin way in which to collect signals.

On the other hand, the signals and issues presented were used also to evoke creative ideas by recombining (parts of the) identified issues,
While secondary scanning usually gives ideas on elaboration of proposed policies or of critics As reported in survey responses and in literature.
before something, an idea or object, can be sensed, it has to be constructed. This construction is essentially a collective activity of knowledge creation.

The idea The Lund Declaration (Lund Declaration 2009) formulated a request that European research should focus on the grand challenges of our time, moving beyond current rigid thematic approaches.
The idea fits well with the Fraunhofer mission, Science and Public policy 39 (2012) pp. 232 244 doi:
The idea was to define pragmatic areas in order to foster this cooperation. Global or grand challenges were regarded

The connections and shared interests of the different researchers will lead to additional new ideas and maybe projects sponsored by other parties.
