L’articolo riporta un caso di studio sul ruolo regionale delle università, concentrandosi sulla realizzazione e gestione di living labs per promuovere il turismo locale. L’obiettivo è quello di fornire evidenze di approcci efficaci per coinvolgere gli stakeholder in iniziative di sviluppo regionale. A questo scopo sono state analizzate le attività di coinvolgimento degli stakeholder che si sono svolte presso l’Università di Macerata. Le conclusioni evidenziano l’utilità delle metodologie e delle tecniche utilizzate per facilitare la cooperazione università-imprese nell’ambito di un living lab.
Keywords: Living labs, co-creation, stakeholder engagement, regional development, university-business cooperation.
