The human touch - without it there's nothing and with it there's everything

Fri, 18 Dec 2009 19:31:47 +0100

The new AMI Communities map is missing something essential: the individual who uses it and all those various different needs and challenges connected to each AMI individual.
Please don't forget that.
Life is always personal. No one can do it for you.

Let's once again rebember ourselves personnally - and what we really are ready to do for our labs and for the right combination of theis challenges especially.

"Personal EU" Panelist @ Bled eCollaboration Conference - You?

Fri, 14 Mar 2008 14:48:03 +0100

I've asked to make a proposal for arranging a "Personal EU" panel discussion as a part of the Bled eCollaboration Conference in Bled, Slovenia, June 15-18th.

I've sent my proposal. Today's challence however is that the panelists must be participants of the conference - and represent more than one country.

Mr. Bror Salmelin (Policy Advisor, European Commission) has accepted my invitation to be the chair of the panel.

AMI@Work Facebook Group

Wed, 07 Nov 2007 16:21:33 +0100

I tried to find here something about Facebook and in Facebook something about AMI@Work. I failed.
So (in waiting for official web2 links) I thought here could be someone who really wants to know what's going on in the citizen-centric world.

For You I opened an AMI@Work group in the Facebook (www.facebook.com) - just to collect together those who like to utilize the "both sides of the world".

Let's create a "Personal EU Finder"

Thu, 01 Nov 2007 13:28:05 +0100

The shortest way to really understand the European union is to have an OWN EU27 team.
AMI communities is the center point of advanced EU ICT and innovation challenges.
Let's put our heads together (virtually is enough) to create a Personal EU Finder.
To understand the entire challenge please visit http://www.personaleu.eu

Your role towards a Personal EU era

Sun, 06 May 2007 08:07:06 +0200

Every member of every Living Lab has 4 essential roles in developing the European future:

1) Role as professional expert of something
2) Role as individual: an unique base unit of life and challenges
3) Role as private person with national citizenship and point of view
4) Role as citizen of the future European union.

I'd like to participate every EU-wide event to tell this and to try make every project itself to a good example towards a "Personal EU era". Unfortunately I don't have resources to do that. You who know the Personal EU initiative and like it: Your next presentation or comment in your next EU collaboration event could be essential support for new and better practices.

You are the key to a human-faced European union

Mon, 09 Apr 2007 09:20:29 +0200

Citizen-centricity is popular in today's European eloquence. The commission speaks about it. The parliament speaks about it. Seminar and conference themes and summarys speak about it. Proposals and projects speak about it. Headlines of regional, national and union-wide information society programmes speak about it.

But what has every time until now happened to it when it's time to make the speaches come true? The paragraphs and hierarchic organizations somehow just roll over the human-faced ideas: speaking as humans in decision making suddenly isn't fashion any more.

Presence Flow

Fri, 30 Mar 2007 12:43:19 +0200

Since 2005 I've participated in the AMI collaboration. For a small SME with a big idea it's not easy, because of much smaller resources than the big ones have. Now after 2 years I know this is not just my problem: The most of us have missed the continuing contact to the essentials. And still we all easily could be present and available in everything that is important to us. I'm speaking about
1) different ways to participate in events

AMI initiative to all EU Capitals: Personal EU Meetpoints!

Wed, 21 Mar 2007 09:27:14 +0100

To rise the AMI Communities brand among all EU innovation society developers, investors and decision makers, and to wake up the EU citizens to understand their enormous personal possibilities on union level, I make this initiative:

AMI Communities, in cooperation with the EU Commission, challenge every 27 EU capital to create within one year a Personal EU Meetpoint. A Personal EU Meetpoint is a very centric situated public square - equipped with 27 signed street stones in a circle. Each stone has the abbreviation of an EU member state name (AU, BE, CZ, CY, DE, DK...). The letters are sand blowed so that the total solution is very elegant and doesn't disturb walking on the square. The base costs of one Personal EU Meetpoint (27 signed street stones could be as little as 1-2000 €). The effect of a Personal EU Meetpoint however can be something very essential, because it helps people from different EU countries easily to network with eachothers - ex tempore and using organized performances.

About orchestrating a Personal EU era

Tue, 27 Feb 2007 15:10:36 +0100

I wish I could be in the Living Labs workshop today. Just to see from your faces that you all are live persons, unique Living Labs.

In speaking about Living Labs I hope we don't forget, that we ourselves as citizensand professionals are the base unit of EU's success.

Naturally we have to work wonders, but nobody else will do it for us personnally.

That's why all 500 000 000 EU citizens have (the pleasure) to be essential on union level.

Living Labs. Living?

Tue, 13 Feb 2007 15:28:33 +0100

Soon 3 months ago during its EU presidency Finland launched the European Network of Living Labs.

I'm not the only one who after that has tried to find the website to that project. The result is just links to old pages with links to old pages with links...

The most trustable place in that carousel seems to be this AMI@Work site. Here people have expressed their interests to LL and in the AMI groups I can find the key persons of LL operations in different countries. Is it so?

Personal EU now "at home": www.personaleu.eu

Fri, 26 Jan 2007 15:29:01 +0100

Until now you've found it on
www.personaleu.net - but to point out that I really want us all together to make the Personal EU era come true, I brought it home to .eu
