  2. Introduction • Background (背景） • Web of things, cloud computing, big data processing（物联网、云计算、大数据……) • Related applications in urban governance and service (城市治理与服务中的应用） • Different modes (不同发展模式) • Living Lab (Almirall & Wareham, 2011) • R&D and innovation (研发与创新) • Full scale urban laboratories for such service development and innovation (面向服务发展与创新的全方位城市实验室） • Fab Lab (Beyes, 2010; Gershenfeld, 2005) • Personal fabrication (个人制造) • Equipped with the tools to achieve every aspect of the technology development process (配备技术发展过程所需的各方面条件)

  3. Introduction (Cont.) • Smarter urban governance (SUG) practices in Beijing (北京的智慧城市管理实践) • have been carried out since 2006(始自2006年) • following the European Living Lab model (学习欧洲的Living Lab模式) • encourage voluntary innovation by individuals and communities, and incorporates them into the overall innovative system of the city(鼓励个人与社区层面的自主创新，将上述创新活动纳入城市的整体创新体系)

  4. Research Questions • What are the differences between the two innovative ideological systems, Living Lab and Fab Lab? (两种创新理念的差异何在?) • How can these differences be explained ? (如何解释这些差异)

  5. Husted's Cultural Consequences Framework • Cultural Consequence Theory (文化价值理论）(Hofstede2001) • Based on: surveys, more than 110,000 employees, IBM, 5 years (基于面向全球11万IBM员工的调查，历时五年) • National culture: the collective programming of the mind which distinguishes the members of one human group from another. National differences can be interpreted in terms of national culture (国家文化: 那些能够区分人类群体成员的共同特征)

  6. Husted's Cultural Consequences Framework (Cont.) • Power Distance (权力距离) (PDI): • highest degree of distance across social groups (e.g., boss v. employee) . • Uncertainty Avoidance (不确定性规避) (UAI): • discomfort with the unknown; desire to reduce ambiguity. • Individualism/Collectivism (个人主义/集体主义) (IDV): • the importance of the individual versus the group. • Masculinity/Femininity (男性主义/女性主义) (MAS): • the emphasis on stereotypically “masculine” goals (power, achievement, etc.) / “feminine” goals and attributes (caring, consensus, etc.) • Long-term orientation (LTO), or the Confucian dynamism (长期导向/儒家文化) • The extent to which a culture programmes its members to accept the delayed gratification of their material, social, and emotional need

  7. Living Lab, Fab Lab and Their Cultural Explanation

  8. Living Lab, Fab Lab and Their Cultural Explanation (Cont.)

  9. Case Analysis of the Smarter Urban Governance (SUG) Practices • Background and Methodology(背景与方法) • SUG endeavors to enhance the urban governance level of Beijing, the capital of China, by using information technology innovation (智慧城市管理旨在利用信息技术创新加强首都城市管理) • The cases of Living Lab and Fab Lab are studied through second-hand data analysis, the case study of SUG is performed by conducting several field interviews with the key principals involved in the project(Living Lab和Fab Lab的材料来源于二手数据，只是城市管理的案例分析则基于对项目主要负责人的多次现场访谈)

  10. Case Analysis of the Smarter Urban Governance (SUG) Practices (Cont.) • Description of the Process of SUG(过程) • The first phase (2005-2008): • The initial development concept for SUG originated from the effort to bridge the gap between the technology development and social demand in the area of city operations management.(理念来源于弥补城市管理中技术发展与社会需求间的缝隙) • The second phase (2008-2010): • In the following two years’ development, SUG was filled with more Fab Lab elements and incorporated into the innovation system of SUG by binding with ordinary citizens to become closer communities as innovative subjects.(逐渐鼓励普通工程成为创新主体) • The third phase (2010-curent): • Ever since 2010, two transformations have brought about new opportunities and challenges for the development of the SUG project. (两方面转型提供了新的机遇和挑战)

  11. Case Analysis of the Smarter Urban Governance (SUG) Practices (Cont.) • Discussion from the Cultural Perspective • Masculinity and uncertainty avoidance scores: those of China closer to those of America • Power distance and long-term orientation: China is characterized by long power distance and high long-term orientation • Individualism: the cultural environment of collectivism in China is more powerful than in Europe

  12. Concluding Remarks • The smarter city should include not only the applications of new ICT, but also the process of pursuing a more convenient and comfortable urban life by virtue of human innovative ideas.(智慧城市不仅包括新技术的应用，而更应该是以创新理念追求便利舒适城市生活的过程) • The innovation system differs under diverse cultural contexts. (不同文化背景下适用的创新体系存在差异)
