Engaging Stakeholders Through SMILE’s Innovative Approach: The ‚Game On‘ Workshop Experience
At the Open Living Labs Days (OLLD) in Timișoara, held from September 25th to 27th, 2024, the SMILE team collaborated with stakeholders in dynamic workshops designed to simulate real-world applications of digital tools, specifically the SMILE Companion App. This event, hosted by the European Network of Living Labs (ENOLL), highlighted SMILE’s commitment to interactive, experiential methodologies that integrate cutting-edge technologies with everyday applications—a cornerstone of the project’s mission.
The workshop featured innovative exercises, including:
- ”In Their Shoes”: Participants adopted persona viewpoints to uncover key insights and empathise with user experiences.
- ”In Their Shoes Results“: Participants provided structured feedback based on each persona’s perspective.
- ”Real-World Testing Journey”: Stakeholders contributed their voices to explore the seven key phases of SMILE’s implementation journey.
These activities offered an invaluable opportunity for user-centered design and interactive stakeholder engagement, equipping the SMILE team with actionable feedback to refine both the Companion App’s features and its broader implementation strategy.
