Across the world, we observe efforts to promote
radical innovations in the public realmbeing
followed by the creation of different types of
authorizing environments that foster these
experiments. We call them Public Innovation
Places. By this we mean experimental sites,
agencies, or labs created to develop innovative
solutions to pressing social problems, and
dedicated to the creation of networks and
partnerships by launching new projects, events
and platforms.
In this first map we pay particular attention to
the rise of Government Innovation Labs, a
range of organizations characterized by a direct
connection with the public sector and developed
to challenge complex public issues that more
traditional governmental structures seek to resolve
