21. “The ICON
model works.”
www.innovatieraad.be
Lieven Danneels,
president of VOKA West-Flanders
Member ICT Board Agoria

22. “The interface of two different worlds (industry
and academic) will definitely lead to the
development of new concepts and products”
“Because of interdisciplinary collaboration, our
engineers can broaden their horizon and gain
insights that are beyond engineering”
“By being immersed in the daily work practices of
the users, the research results are based on
actual context rather than on assumptions”
Quotes from the Accio project
