Abstract

:
The living lab (LL) concept has a significant potential to drive sustainable development, particularly in the bioeconomy sector, by assisting communities in improving their quality of life whilst also considering the environmental impact. In this context, the main research question was the following: is there any specific mechanism through which living labs operate under the sustainable development concept? We reviewed 120 papers addressing this topic and performed a bibliometric analysis on the linkage between sustainability and living labs by applying the methodology of a systematic review. We concluded that living labs can drive innovation and experimentation in sustainability, which can be transposed into tangible solutions to economic, environmental, and social problems. The role of living labs in the transition to a bioeconomy is discussed and further research directions are presented.

    1. Introduction

    Across the globe, humankind is constantly seeking new resources at a rapidly growing pace. As a result, a tremendous amount of strain is put on the climate, ecosystems, and biodiversity. The notion of sustainable development was proposed in the late 1980s in the Brundtland Report on Environmental Protection and Nuclear Safety, also known as the Brundtland Report, as “development that meets the needs of the present without jeopardizing future generations’ ability to meet their own needs” [1]. Since then, the notion of sustainable development has grown in popularity, becoming the focus of numerous papers. The implementation of the Global Framework and the 17 Sustainable Development Goals has resulted in a shift away from an economic model based on linear growth, which has been sustained by a change in national strategies to achieve this transition [2]. On the other side, understanding the social, economic, and political environments remains an ongoing challenge for researchers. Many drivers of sustainable development have been identified so far, such as technology readiness, multi-actor collaborations, and science-based policies [3].
    In this article, the living lab (LL) concept is depicted as one strong driver of sustainable development, particularly in the bioeconomy sector, with the main role of assisting communities in identifying and implementing ways to enhance the quality of life in different aspects, whilst also considering the environmental impact. Also, in the context of this paper, we refer to living labs as an open innovation ecosystem that is user focused, and grounded on a methodical approach to user co-creation that integrates research and innovation processes in realistic settings and communities [4].
    During the past 20 years, the LL concept has been used and researched in various fields, including public health sciences, environmental engineering, and urban planning [5,6]. The idea has influenced peri-urban, urban, and rural environments as well. Specifically, living labs, embedded in the territorial structure, boost the possibilities for technological advancements and the propagation of a digital culture by bringing together stakeholders from many facets of the community [7].
    Moreover, living labs proved to be effective in encouraging inclusive community development, including all stakeholders, in addition to technology benefits through group learning, innovative co-creation, and information sharing [8]. However, the specific mechanisms through which living labs can spur sustainable development remain under-explored, although there is evident synergy between these two concepts. Therefore, the objectives of this article are as it follows:
    • To systematically review the literature addressing the linkage between living labs and sustainability;
    • To analyze to what extent LLs have been a basis for innovation;
    • To perform a bibliometric analysis on the link between living labs and sustainability;
    • To synthesize living labs contributions to sustainability with a particular focus on the bioeconomy sector.

    1.1. Sustainability and Bioeconomy—Two Synergic Concepts

    Sustainability is defined as “a characteristic or state in which current needs can be met without jeopardizing future generations’ or populations’ ability to meet their own needs” [9]. As efforts to harness biodiversity continue, a variety of economic models have been proposed to increase and improve sustainability. Some of these economic models are represented by the bioeconomy and the circular economy, which have become in recent years important means to improve sustainability. A growing number of governments, businesses, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and civil society organizations (CSOs) are incorporating them into their operations. They all have the same goal of increasing access to resources while reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
    A bioeconomy is considered to be a subsection of economics that is based on biology and bioscience, with activities in the environmental, social, political, and economic spheres [10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19]. Some authors, however, argue that the bioeconomy does not separate technological progress from societal progress [20]. Bugge, Hansen, and Klitkou’s approach proposed three dimensions of bioeconomy: (i) biotechnology—highlighting the role of biotechnology in several economic sectors; (ii) bioresources—emphasizing the processing and valorization of raw materials; and last, (iii) bioecology—emphasizing environmental sustainability, biodiversity promotion, and environmental protection [17,21,22,23,24]
    The core of the bioeconomy is the idea that economic activities must be based on renewable resources. This means that the products and services of the economy should be produced from renewable resources, in a manner that does not harm the environment. This contradicts the traditional economy, which relies on the exploitation of finite resources that cause pollution and harm to the environment. The ultimate goal of bioeconomy is to create a more sustainable, efficient, and responsible way of producing and providing goods and services with minimal environmental harm [25,26,27,28,29,30].
    The implementation of the bioeconomy requires an effective legal framework, as well as financial incentives to support the transition to the new system. The European Commission’s Circular Bio-Economy Action Plan [31] outlines a set of policy-related instruments that can be adopted to incentivize the transition to a circular bioeconomy. This includes measures for creating a more vibrant market for bio-based products, such as creating regulatory and fiscal incentives for the production and use of bio-based products, reducing administrative burdens and improving market access, as well as raising public awareness and driving public–private collaboration. The European Commission is also committed to enhancing its collaboration with Member States to unlock the potential of the circular bioeconomy. This includes developing common strategies for biomass production and processing, as well as investing in research and innovation [31]. Additionally, a shift in public attitudes and behaviors towards more sustainable practices is needed to facilitate a successful transition to the bioeconomy.

    1.2. The Living Lab Concept

    When living labs made their appearance in Europe in the early 2000s, it was visible that the European living lab concept, which was built on earlier experiences with participatory design, significantly reinterpreted the US-originated home labs. The user began to be studied in his or her usual environment, rather than in a laboratory setting, which was a significant difference [32], that employed delivering the testing facilities to the users [33]. Recently, a new concept (the “agro living labs” or ALLs) emerged, due to climate change, war conflicts in Europe, and the COVID-19 health crisis [34].
    A living lab is a real-world environment for innovative co-creation concerning knowledge, products, or services, where the term ”user” implies those living in the lab, if any, but also the stakeholders from business, society, and academia [35]. The user-centric approach used by the LL methodology, which involves all relevant actors and end users, is a key component. All the actors can be categorized using the quadruple helix Model, an extension of the conventional Public–Private Partnership, even though the specific actors will vary depending on the LL emphasis, objective, and context [36,37].
    Participants in the quadruple helix model include individuals from every sector of society. Universities or research institutes are two examples of academia stakeholders. The public sector might include regional and local governments, as well as the public sector in general (such as formal health care providers in some countries). Industry may also include organizations and clusters of businesses of all sizes. Citizens and civil society, which encompass all end users like customers and their associations, are the fourth actor in the quadruple helix [19]. As a general principle, users who are willing to participate in the innovation processes should be easily accessible in a living lab setting.Table 1 summarizes the essential principles of a usual living laboratory.

    1.3. Living Labs as Catalysts for Sustainable Development

    The living lab concept is used all over the world to drive innovation that is suitable for and based on real-world issues and situations [38]. Despite the LL approach’s potential for tackling difficult problems, like socio-ecological transformation, there are questions that remain regarding its contribution to sustainable development [39].
    Until now, LLs have been used to develop new insights and tools in a variety of industries such as urban planning, application design, or information management and technology. Moreover, specific living lab studies have utilized the approach to climate change mitigation and sustainable natural resource management in terms of environmental and agricultural sustainability [34,40,41,42].
    Considering the features discussed in the previous section, living labs have the potential to be a strategic research tool for science in sustainability and bioeconomy. This can enable the generation of competitive advantages by bringing together sustainable requirements and contributions. A living lab may also serve as a platform to test newly developed product–service systems, as well as to support the research agendas by analyzing processes of current production and consumption patterns [16,43]. A particular kind of living lab that emerges frequently when sustainability issues are discussed in the literature is the urban living lab (ULL) [44].
    Both concepts have many similarities and we presume that the usual features of LLs, as well as the guidelines for their design and operation, apply the majority of the time to urban living labs, as well.
    Nonetheless, the main distinction between these two concepts is the specific focus on developing solutions to improve sustainability in urban settings. Urban living labs have a particular aspect that is frequently referred to as the “urban” component by researchers of urban living labs: the inclusion of this clear goal of promoting urban sustainability in a living lab’s problem and goal statement [45,46,47]. To conclude, living labs are rooted in sustainability and span many fields of study and interests. These include the advancement of intelligent network technologies that are applicable to smart urban environments [48,49], investigations of local settings that reveal best practices in sustainable development in real time [50], and research on ways to improve social and material conditions whilst ensuring agency and resource efficiency [51]. This article is structured into five main chapters, whereSection 2 outlines the methodology for the systematic review and bibliometric analysis,Section 3 presents the results, including key performance and thematic findings, andSection 4 andSection 5 offer a discussion on the role of living labs in sustainable development and conclude with implications, key insights, and future research directions.

    2. Materials and Methods

    Generally, bibliometric analysis is termed as the application of mathematical and statistical techniques to any written means of communication [52]. Bibliometric analysis enables the examination of the literature on different research subjects in order to investigate the conceptual structure and trends of research topics [53]. Science maps are often used in conjunction with bibliometric methods to obtain a visualization of the structure of a research topic’s theoretical foundation [54]. Bibliometric techniques include co-citation analysis, bibliographic coupling, co-authorship analysis, and co-word analysis [55]. To ensure a comprehensive and rigorous analysis of the link between living labs and sustainable development, this study followed a three-phase methodology that combines bibliometric analysis with a systematic literature review. In the first phase, an extensive search was conducted in the Web of Science database to identify relevant publications using specific keywords related to sustainability and living labs. Following the data collection, a careful screening phase was conducted to exclude publications that did not meet the predetermined inclusion criteria. Finally, the selected documents were analyzed using Biblioshiny software 4.1.2 to generate a detailed picture of trends, collaborations, and the global impact of research in this field. This systematic approach allowed for an objective and replicable assessment of how living labs contribute to innovation in sustainability, with a particular focus on the bioeconomy.
    Phase 1. Data collection
    To begin with, we selected Web of Science, one of the most prestigious scientific databases, to collect data that integrates the state-of-the-art literature on living labs, sustainable development, and bioeconomy. Next, by taking into account the review of the literature, we identified the search phrases and confirmed them with domain professionals. The abstract, title, and keywords were encompassed in the string (“sustainability” OR “sustainable development” AND “living labs”). This study looked at publications that came out before February 2024. The preliminary search yielded 1704 results.
    Among those 1704 results, only 1606 were published between 2012 and 2023. Additionally, only articles that were written in English were considered for the review process; reviews and conference proceedings were excluded. After applying the second and the third search criteria, a total of 1274 documents were identified. The last criteria used was the exclusion–inclusion one: only subjects that were directly related to the keywords that we utilized were included, such as environmental science, economics, earth and planetary sciences, green sustainable science technology, and multidisciplinary sciences. Finally, a number of 818 articles complied with the mentioned criteria. In order to reduce the possibility of bias, determined by the continuous update of the WoS database, the process of retrieving the relevant papers was performed once only.
    Phase 2. Data Screening
    All publication titles and abstracts were carefully reviewed for their relevance to sustainable development and living lab concepts. Publications unrelated to this topic, as well as duplicates, were excluded from the sample. Next, the papers were manually evaluated for validity, which means that a quality control analysis of the publications was performed through abstract analysis, to ascertain if the selected keywords were contextually relevant.
    A total of 120 articles were found to be satisfactory.Appendix A provides a short description of all the papers analyzed.
    Phase 3. Bibliometric analysis
    The documents were then imported into Biblioshiny software, the virtual interface of Bibliometrix. This study used bibliometric analysis to create an overall picture of the existing knowledge on LLs and sustainability.
    One of the primary applications of bibliometric analysis is performance analysis—the evaluation of publication information of authors and institutions, such as annual production, citations, author ranks, countries, journals, and disciplines.
    Furthermore, science mapping, another important application of bibliometric analysis, creates structural images of scientific fields using bibliographic data.
    In contrast to the narrative literature review, which is susceptible to the researcher’s subjective bias and is frequently less rigorous, bibliometric analysis can improve the quality and objectivity of a review by introducing a systematic and reproducible review process [56].

    3. Results

    3.1. Performance Analysis

    This section analyzes the contribution of research constituents to a specific field (countries and journals in this case). The results show the distribution of the 132 publications indexed in Scopus related to LLs and starting from 2012. The trend that characterizes the annual scientific production is ascendant, starting with 1 article in 2012 and 28 articles in 2022.Table 2 presents the details on the number of articles published every year.
    In terms of country production, the territories with the most intense blue tones are responsible for the highest publication records. InFigure 1, the world’s scientific production on living labs and the sustainability linkage is depicted. In this map, all author nationalities, who make up the collection, are considered.
    The color intensity increases directly proportional to the number of publish papers. It appears that the topic is widespread around the world, with particular importance in The Netherlands (89), Germany (27), Italy (56), and the United Kingdom (41), which are considered the most productive countries in the sampled base.
    With respect to the corresponding authors’ countries,Figure 2 depicts two important indicators: the SCP (single country publications) indicating, for all countries, the number of papers that have at least one co-author affiliated in a different country) and the MCP (multi country collaboration) measuring the extent of the international collaboration of a country.
    Table 3 bellow contains detailed statistics on single country publications and multiple country publication. A high international collaboration can be observed in the case of The Netherlands, Italy, Sweeden, and the United Kingdom, while the lowest is present in countries such as Spain or Korea.

    3.2. Source Analysis

    Generally, the ”source” concept refers to a journal, book, conference proceedings series, etc., which published one or more documents included in our database.Figure 3 presents the first 10 most relevant sources from the study sample we examined. It can be observed thatSustainability is the most relevant source, representing 20 papers from the sample.
    Moreover, we used the Bradford law of scattering to determine the most influential journals. This law is particularly useful for quantifying the correlation between scientifical journals and the number of articles published.
    It argues that a small number of major journals will produce the majority of articles on a specific topic, presenting a sizable portion (one-third) of publications, followed by a second, larger group of journals, whilst the remaining third depicts a much broader group.
    The first zone is considered to be the nucleus of journals particularly devoted to the given subject. The nucleus zone (zone 1) is represented in the case by the journal “Sustainability”, comprising 55% of the articles analyzed. The following two journals are the main contributors to the middle zone (zone 2). SeeTable 4 below.

    3.3. Global Citations

    Global citations quantify the number of citations obtained by all the documents forming the sample. These data are provided by WoS and are included in the meta-data record. For most documents, a significant part of global citations could come from other disciplines (Figure 4).
    FromTable 5, it can be observed that the paper elaborated on by Torrijos and collaborators [56] is the most globally cited document from the analyzed sample. The research focuses, among other issues, on integrating composting systems in bio-technological living labs for educational purposes.

    3.4. Thematic Analysis

    The Biblioshiny software program can also conduct data mining and statistical analysis on the most encountered extracted keywords from research publications. Keywords associated with a word frequency greater than or equal to 10 are then illustrated under the shape of word cloud (seeFigure 5).
    Overall, the figure depicts a pictorial representation of the most popular themes in this research field. The basic themes comprising the clearly established research issues in this area are shown in the bottom-right corner of the figure. The main themes are living labs, technology, urban living labs, etc. The themes increasing in importance in the last years are illustrated in the upper-right part ofFigure 5. They primarily consist of three research topics: cities governance, the co-creation approach, and sustainability design. Keyword analysis (Table 6) also demonstrates that significant research has been conducted in these research areas.

    4. Discussion

    4.1. Living Labs as Catalysts for Sustainable Development

    As a general remark, we conclude that sustainable patterns cannot be realized exclusively via technological efficiency improvements. Many innovations in products and services with a great potential for sustainability fail because consumers reject them or because they have undesirable knock-on effects [64,65]. Unexpected user behavior and the improper usage of sustainable efficient technologies are additional critical factors [66].
    Living labs tackle exactly these issues and enforce sustainable development by implementing a user-centric innovation environment, grounded in daily practice and research. This enables user and stakeholder influence in innovation processes, engaging stakeholders in real-life contexts with the aim of developing sustainable values [16,67].
    With respect to the proposed objectives, particularly the analysis of the living labs contribution to sustainability, from the sample of analyzed studies we concluded that LLs can assist with the following issues on the implementation of the sustainable development agenda: (1) finding common ground with several actors who have various approaches and objectives concerning bioeconomy and sustainability; (2) assessing, evaluating, and adopting useful solutions from people who are difficult to reach out to; and (3) prevail over the lack of trust among stakeholders. Therefore, living laboratories support the resolution of complex issues that cannot be addressed by a single stakeholder, using a systematic method. Living labs can assist in both the rapid scaling up of bioeconomy innovations and the better attainment of broad social acceptance, by involving people and end users from the very beginning. These findings are useful for practitioners and researchers, but they are the most useful for policy makers. If the first two categories are usually well informed when it comes to a subject of interest, the latter are more likely to make decisions based on political conjecture. The only way for research results to reach the political sphere would be through actions to popularize science, such as information campaigns and conferences in which political representatives are invited.
    Moreover, living labs can also help assist in achieving the SDGs by addressing issues such as circular economy, sustainable urban planning, or sustainable consumption and production [68]. Climate change is also one of the targets that may be pursued through a living lab methodology by approaching both adaptation and mitigation solutions [49]. Regarding the specific contribution to the bioeconomy implementation, based on the analyzed sample of articles, we point out two important aspects.
    First, bioeconomy innovation seeks to contribute to the transformation of production and consumption systems towards sustainability. This involves a gradual structural shift in business models and value chains, which can only be developed through collaboration, given the diversity of engaged stakeholders. The context of LLs is ideal for planning this transition. Hence, accordingly, the innovation processes in LLs should be focused on creating innovations that entail a low-resource consumption–production loop [69].
    Second, only by involving system-relevant stakeholders in the process of innovation will this transition be successful. Consumers and policy makers are relevant in addition to science and business representatives. In practice, they should be integrated into living labs for a bioeconomy towards sustainability. In light of these arguments, creating living labs to aid in implementing the SDGs can be a useful instrument. Living labs might serve as the link between open innovation and the users of these technologies, in a sustainability setting, in addition to driving better interaction and cooperation among the many actors involved [70,71].

    4.2. Further Research Directions

    However, for being able to measure a specific contribution of living labs to sustainable development, a proper methodology for evaluation, a reliable database, and a relevant indicator set are required and should be taken into account during the innovation process and constantly be updated.
    The research on sustainability illustrates the need for a comprehensive approach that considers the production–consumption system. The potential for achieving resource efficiency and improved life quality lies in the research areas of individual decision making, merged with organizational learning processes. Living labs provides the chance to analyze the production–consumption system interaction using a technical and socially flexible framework [72].

    5. Conclusions

    Living labs, with a focus on sustainability, can drive innovation that can be transposed into tangible measures for tackling economic, environmental, and social problems [73,74]. They can be effective instruments for encouraging knowledge integration for issues addressing sustainability, since social behavior is based on environmental and cultural contexts [75,76]. Also, besides the widespread use of the notion, interest in living labs as a resource for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals has grown steadily over time. The most recent research has been on how living labs may support urban entrepreneurship that encourages social and economic development, sustainability, and local business growth [49,77]. The living lab may also support rural areas. In this respect, the agro living lab, also known as the “agroecosystem living lab”, ”agroecology living lab”, or the “agri-food living lab”, emerged as a response to the environmental, economic, and social challenges.
    From a policy framework standpoint, when implementing the transition to a bioeconomy, it is crucial to take into account both economic development and environmental sustainability. Although it is frequently assumed that the advancement of biotechnology and the capitalization of bioresources will result in both economic growth and favorable environmental effects, it is crucial to assess and take into account the potential climate changes and other environmental effects of this transition. To make sure that the transition to a bioeconomy is actually sustainable, policy makers should pay close attention to the sustainability issue, but also to horizontal and vertical policy integration [41,78,79]. Since the stakeholders’ interest might be competing, some elements must be taken into account in this process: there has to be a “problem owner”, trust, and organizational structure [41]. The possible effects of bioeconomy policies on the environment, social equity, and economic development must be carefully assessed and carefully considered, in order to achieve this. The bioeconomy may not achieve its potential to aid in long-term sustainable development without an emphasis on sustainability [80,81].
    To maximize the potential of living labs in driving sustainable development, it is essential to establish clear frameworks for collaboration across sectors and to engage stakeholders from the earliest stages of the innovation process. Policy makers should recognize the strategic value of living labs as platforms for co-creation and inclusive development, integrating them into broader sustainability agendas. Furthermore, it is recommended that future initiatives focus on developing robust evaluation methodologies to track the long-term impact of living labs, particularly in areas such as the circular economy, urban sustainability, and bioeconomy. By fostering stronger connections between research, industry, and policy, living labs can play a pivotal role in addressing complex sustainability challenges on a global scale.
