Ecosystem Amsterdam I
Culture • Netherlands, Amsterdam especially, is full of networkers, wanting to collaborate for mutual benefit • Players are to-the-point, direct, mostly non-political • Short lines between different kinds of stakeholders • Sometimes: looking for too short-term effect • So: need to find the rights partners that want to innovate with you
Policy • Feedback loops from civil society & companies do exist. • Amsterdam invites people in and helps to organise • Keen eye for bottom-up development, and connecting to bottum-up developers • Policy mindset is favorable to novelty and innovation. • A lot is learned from international cooperation
Ecosystem Amsterdam II
Support • There is a very active layer of support structures available: • Non-governmental institutions • Foundations • Funding agencies • Accelerators • Knowledge institute • Civil society groups
• The culture is informal, which makes professionals easy to access • The internet, business & financial support structures are well developed
Markets • Amsterdam is the Netherlands most important & vibrant creative design hub • Lots of startups, student, talent • Lots of business clubs, networking agencies • Openness to disruptive innovation (Uber, AirBNB) • However: thers is not a Silicon Valley startup culture (yet)
Ecosystem Amsterdam III
Human Capital • A large number of talented individuals is available • Many (Eastern Europeans, Chinese & Indians) come to study in NL • Short ties to educational & research institutions • Actors are generally good at networking • Entrepreneurship starting to become bigger
Finance • Top-sector Creative Industries • Government invests in accelerators • Crowdfunding becomes available • Funding for collaborations between universities and companies • Tax reduction in innovation • Tax reduction for start-up companies • European funding for start-ups and large integrated projects

Learnings
• True innovation takes a leap of faith: chose your partners and sponsors wisely
• Ecosystems need to be nurtured: you have to give before you take
• Ecosystems are about people, therefore about trust
• It can take considerable time to get to know itand for them to know you
• There are always more ways to get there
VALUE
What design can do for government
• Retain a focus on the user / citizen • Give a structure for being creative about
problem-solving • Test iterations of possible solutions in
order to learn more about the problem • Identify new, more relevant ideas and
services and steward them through delivery • Engage users (citizens and employees) in
the design of change.

Design Rules for Smarter Cities
• Your citizens know more than you. • Prototype early and fast, engage the stakeholders, iterate quickly and be
prepared to start all over. • Embrace self-organisation and civic initiative, but help to make the results
sustainable and scalable. • Know what you are talking about in the face of technology. Never rely on
consultants that will sell you more consultancy, not solutions. • Have binding decisions made at the lowest level possible and actively preach
self-governance. • Favour loosely coupled, smaller systems over monoliths and mastodons, and
use peer-defined standards to glue together the parts. Small systems tend to fail sometimes; large systems fail for sure.
• To raise and deserve trust, build systems based on data reciprocity and transparency.
• Reuse existing parts and design your additions for reuse, adding to the public domain and thereby strengthening its capacity to act and learn.
