ISCN Tomorrow?
Take action to facilitate active sharing and
partnerships…
* “Next Steps” for ISCN in Research
Use ISCN as a forum to promote Triple Helix R&D
partnerships
NTU Living Lab examples:
“NTU EcoCampus”
Renewable Energy Integration Demonstrator Singapore
(“REIDS”)
Set up platform to promote Research Partnerships within ISCN
member universities
Sharing research knowledge, results
Encourage research partnerships among ISCN members
