• At what level should collaboration take place in an Open Service Innovation Campus (ODI campus)?
• What should be the focal point of an ODI campus?
• What type of innovation should an ODI campus focus on?
• To what extent should an ODI campus have a technological, sectoral, or thematic focus?

Based on these four questions, participants of the policy workshop on design requirements for an ODI campus analysed the possibilities for such a campus in Amsterdam. The analysis was introduced by a presentation from Pim den Hertog (UvA/AMSI/Dialogic) and Jesse Bos (Dialogic), who outlined the necessary conditions for a campus and the possible design dimensions. Katalin Gallyas (EZ Amsterdam) then explained the opportunities and questions surrounding an ODI campus in Amsterdam, after which the participants themselves proposed two campus possibilities; one that aligns with an existing initiative and one for the further development of a new initiative. The outcomes of this workshop have been incorporated as an attachment in the report United We Stand: design dimensions for an open service innovation campus.
