| Abstract | Due to demographic change, public research funds have been directed to boost development of ambient assisted living solutions. This effort has been expected to create a market for information and communications technology (ICT)-enhanced products and services, which could support older adults in living independently for longer. However, the market for such products and services has developed rather slowly despite strong public investment, and the uptake of the developed solutions has not always met the high expectations (Eberhardt et al. 2010); hence, it seems to be difficult to deliver on the promise that ICTs will help mitigate the economic and social impact of demographic ageing. Therefore, two urgent questions need to be answered to tap the full potential of new technologies in demographic ageing: (i) what are the problems of public-private partnerships (PPPs) in commercializing ICT solutions in silver markets and (ii) how to support PPPs through policy and other measures to succeed. In this paper, we address these questions by analysing the case study based on the Ambient Assisted Living Joint Programme (AAL JP), which has reinforced market orientation of collaborative research and innovation projects through various types of activities. The paper presents a framework that is based on an analysis of commercialization needs and requirements of European networked innovation projects funded by the AAL JP. The data set was collected during business development workshops with 50 different project consortia representing 117 individual partners notably including users, researchers, SMEs, third-sector organizations and industrial partners. The resulting support framework covers (1) what can be done in ensuring that projects are initiated in a way conducive to successful commercialization, (2) what can be done during the execution of the project to support commercialization activities, and (3) how can project participants be supported after the financially supported collaboration phase. The analysis of the networked innovation projects financed through the AAL JP is also discussed from the viewpoint of targeted open innovation with policy implications. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
