5 KISS SIG objectives Objectives (remains same) The SRII Knowledge Intensive Service Systems SIG will bring together research in knowledge intensive services with that of systems thinking to encourage a holistic view of service systems The SIG will aim to stimulate holistic and creative thinking among its members and to be an open and democratic group welcoming both researchers and practitioners The SIG will promote Knowledge Intensive Service Systems through conferences and workshops and will stimulate the creation of educational and training materials Focus on ICT-based Service Systems

6 KISS SIG Strategy learning from practice Now includes feedback arrow

7 KISS SIG Strategy first part remains mostly the same The KISS SIG main strategic objective is to build an active community of researchers and practitioners interested in Knowledge Intensive Service Systems. We are interested in looking at how KIS firms help clients with their innovation processes and how the interaction with clients helps KIS firms to improve their own innovation processes. We are also interested in KISS in relation to service operations The SIG strategy will include targeting the development of appropriate case studies and exemplars of good practice demonstrating how KIS firms contribute to wealth creation. The SIG strategy will also address the role of KIS firms in regional, national and globalised innovation systems and their role as facilitator, carrier, source and co-producer of such systems.

8 KISS SIG Strategy second part changed to include a list of activities ACTIVITIES studying of socio-economic data at firm and industry level, investigating trends and policies and recommending ways to look forward. developing the theoretical foundations in knowledge-intensive services and service systems examining how KISS affect innovation processes in different ways and how their use varies across sectors and across time both on the supply side and the demand side Studying the characteristics of intensive knowledge work developing a body of knowledge in KISS developing educational and training programmes promoting the need for KISS research among funding councils

9 Development of the KISS SIG Leadership Council Identify possible joint projects between council members Identify opportunities for high quality joint publications
