Citizen participation
Upon an internal feasibility analysis, tenants were invited to outreach events for basic information on a future potential service (e-car sharing) and activated to participate in the definition of the project framework (such as making the decision on which cars to purchase/lease). The Active Groups of tenants were provided the authority and competence to deal with the everyday management. Finally, the Active Groups (all tenants) are also contributing to the elaboration of the final business model upon the completion of the EU funded Smarter Together project.
