FuturICT as a glance: Potential National Networks in Complex Systems

1. FuturICT as a glance: Potential National Networks in Complex Systems Prof.dr.Carmen Costea ASE & ASA

2. The world is changing • Changes our attitude and expectations requiring new approaches of life and profit. • Ancient Chinese Science – Feng-Shui - promoted the Profit of Life (as a space harmony with the environment) • These unusual tools have reliable correspondents in the western managementpractices, life, finances and personal relationships. • Every day life teaches us, a lesson that science has only recently acknowledged, that life is complex. • The need of durable development asfulfilment and harmony, a better life inside a sounder society and environment (as a living entity) where people need to learn, think and consider, the role of the community and the value of being. • People have acted differently thinking benefits and looking for tools of getting their goals

3. Life on the move

4. As a consumer: what you get is what you learn to haveAs a business owner:what you get is what you understand to finance

5. Need to rethink both Science and Developmentof Life under a new approach from Uni-dimensional versus Multi-dimensional Promote a new way of considering the real meaning of living and analyse it, under the label of “E” Theory (of sound education, effusiveness, social emancipation, elegance of thinking and economic emergence). A new philosophy of life and action within economies and societies. Franchising the knowledge (SHAPE THE CHANGE) This new perspective = Capitalizing the added value by PRO-ACTIVE auto-governance : agility, flexibility, versatility, adaptability

6. From Complicated to Complex “Markets .... are now more and more turbulent and complex, and the game rules become less clear or they change to such a speed that adaptability and flexibility begin to be considered by many authors as the only key to managerial success. “ Wilkinson and Young, 2002 v1 Effects: fragmentation; transformation v2 Complexity science v3 Society as a propagation medium for information and knowledge

7. Vehicles of change IT+ Complexity science = KBS Cognitive science

8. Performance in the KBE needs a new, global vision Unknown R&D NGO SME SME Products and Technology Education SME NGO SME MARKET SME V1 Knowledge flow SME NGO Knowledge diffusion Society

9. Some new opportunities for SME Knowledge markets – the emergence of non-tangible goods Triggering firms Facilitator firms Mentoring, training, coaching Edutainment Knowledge management Patenting and licensing Evaluation mechanisms Education markets – new functions: inducing “disruption” by creating new socio-economic structures needed by “breakthrough professionals”; knowledge dissemination to businesses; generation of clusters, networks, spin-offs; Continuous learning for mentors and parents Science Shop, Science fun, Hands-on Science New markets

10. Some new opportunities for SME New professions Breakthrough professions – create the knowledge stock; inventions necessary for the KBE (researchers, elite professionals, knowledge managers); • Trans- and interdisciplinary professionals: legal physics, econophysics • Structuring the framework, organization scheme and methodology • Recruitment, formation, and mentoring of professionals • Transfer specialists at the interface with Society (3rd Culture) Development professions – take over knowledge and inventions produced by the first group and infuse it into production cycle. Generate innovation (hardware and software, nanotech, biotech, new materials); ensure industrial competitiveness.

11. WHAT TO DO : Think differentlyFrom the linear systems to the non linear ones Et Et+1 Linear Paradigm Non-linear Paradigm

12. INNOVATION and its limits • Prohibitive dimensions of EU Standards for local employment and products • Inappropriate infrastructure and limits in harmonizing it with demands and conditions • Statistics and reality differences: e.g. RO the youngest retired people of EU, the greatest number of active population

13. Creativity Civic awareness and realvalue-based action Multiple approach of stakeholders Networked society New & revolutionary technologies Implement “Just do it!” principle Risk taking principle Social Innovation Europe Bridging together projects and persons with similar experiences and motivation of working andlearning together Development of a Bank of resources easily accessible Develop new relations between civil society – GOV – entities of all sort 7 pillars of Social Innovation - Euclid Network):

14. Risks Oportunities Rules Multi-culturalism Labor migration Networks (transport, internet) New ASSETS to reconsider the value and economic approaches based on institutional and ideological needs for changements Sensors : Education, Society, Environment Standards:

15. Potential Conclusions: right “E” approaches, strategies, behaviour Corporate Family State Data sources: National Office of Statistics National Commission of Economic Forecasting Ministry of Education and Research Institute of Academic Education Ministry of Finance Ministry of Labour Ministry of Home Affairs NGOs Report Governmental Agencies Model Iterative fluctuation, Trajectory Fixed points Attractors

16. Opportunity/scoping Commitment to action Self motivation and assumed responsibility Constant innovation Flawless execution Trends: Status spheres: traditional, transient, online, eco, giving, participative Premiumization Snack culture Online Oxygen Eco-ionic Brand Butlers Make it yourself Crowd mining Good learning Good jobs Good quality of employers (Family) spousal coverage Look in: Enhance CI practices Look out: Learn about best of others Look ahead :Opportunity /Scoping Take action: Move execute, and raise the bar Characteristics of the new type of life

17. Lead Market Initiative correctly read: Social Innovation Regional Innovation Design Clusters New standards (Quality) Standards Public Auctions Knowledge and technology transfer with competencies Eco-innovation (soft skills) Ideas for educational projects: New types of Partership proving awareness, accountability, freedom to accept responsibility Learning to create a better elder generation Eliminate Social stress Complex Integration of public and private initiates and projects Mediating Innovation more jobs, improved lives, better society Development of a hybrid world is emergent, thrives on MUTATIONS that arise in the GAP between PAST & FUTURE, between the crises in education & culture. DESIGN EDUCATION focuses on freedom of being sustainable responsible & systems thinking to counter crisis even inside the boom. It must serve the future!!!

18. FuturICT – a super hub mediator • Diversity of reforms • Methodology of reforms and norms of correct applications • International recognition of local changes • Persistence of problems in all countries no matter the development degree, political regime resulting in complex inequality • The inadaptability of all systems • FuturICT could become a great solution for retraining – long life education as secondary education in alternance developed on the basis of educational policies combined with employment policies (national & regional education authorities associated with economic planning or employment policy matters) to bring each side closer to the other interests • The vocational education could be developed close to the handcraft artistic abilities

19. Environment Integrated programs Skills Strategies New Roles Tools Forces Value Conflicts Strategies Barriers Discoveries Components of Life and Work

20. FUTURICT Vision: develop intuition, imagination and intelligence • Expanding the Inner Self building for ‘presencing’, deep connectedness with nature, finding the “self” and creating generational moments. • Designing the Mind- involves working with simplicity at the right scale, an efficient and frugal use of resources, sound regional economics and social resilience. It is often targets the uniqueness of places and uses play, as a preamble to real life. • • Wellness -this addresses vulnerabilities, targets deprivations, involves being critical and often, in curricular terms this means including the excluded. • • Generating the freedom of being responsible- fundamentally this involves creating conditions for the expression of constructive dissatisfaction or creative discontent.

21. The IMMEDIATE STEPT: Cross Cultural shift FROM: “Culture is being destroyed in order to yield entertainment …Those who produce for the mass media ransack the entire range of past and present culture in the hope of finding suitable material …this material, moreover, cannot be offered as it is; it must be altered in order to become entertaining, it must be prepared to be easily consumed.” TO: “A real cross-cultural attitude demands that the very paradigms, the very categories, the very forms of thinking, and the presuppositions of that other culture become integrated in the very vision I have of my own culture and the other culture. . . . It is not that there are new things in the panorama; it is that the panorama is a different one.”
