Abstract(s)

As society changes rapidly, there is a need to educate professionals who contribute to innovation and complex adaptations in organizations, and Living Labs are recognized as educational environments to prepare students in higher e 2021). There is a trinomial relationship between Academy, Society, and Industries, which are interestingly far more exploited than the Education and Research. Effective management of the knowledge and information transferred between open innovation ecosystem partners is crucial -life setting, co-creation, active user involvement, multi-stakeholder participation, and a multi-method approach (ENoLL, 2022). world we live in, and scholars belonging to a wide variety of academic disciplines are investigating the opportunities deriving from such a revolution. The scientific development of both concepts is an active field in the academic community, and new ideas appear, opening new paths of knowledge transfer methods with knowledge from data. And Living Labs can be used as adaptable platforms where researchers and practitioners collaborate to carry out evidence-based research and innovation on educational processes (Montero & Krawczyk, 2021). The success of Open Innovation in enhancing innovation development has resulted in public authorities incentivizing firms to adopt the paradigm through public subsidies for research and development activities (Bigliardi, Ferraro, Filippelli, & Galati, 2021). As a leading institution in the training of professionals linked to the maritime a D. Henrique (ENIDH) is involved in the eShip project, supported by the EEA Grants. Thus embodying its role as a promoter of technological and digital progress in the sector. The eShip project aims to digitize the vessel chartering process, thereby cutting management costs and fueling the digital transition. The primary objective of the eShip project is to develop a digitalization model for the entire chartering process, from the market research stage to the completion of the trip, including freight negotiation and contracting, real-time trip analysis, overage calculations. /sub-stay, issuance of shipping and billing documents, post-trip analysis, and regulatory compliance. This electronic platform will be tested in two pilot projects using an innovative approach in technological and pedagogical terms, through Living Labs, focusing on the Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) market, which is located in evident rise, and Solid Bulk (Kyas, Springer, Pedersen, & Chkoniya, 2021). Using the eShip Case Study, this paper demonstrates that Experience-Based Expertise and Open Innovation must be understood as a single process, where Living Labs that involve Academies and Enterprises create unique conditions for society's progress.
