Research about services is moving from a sector and supply approach to an activity and demand perspective, where services generate value in any social and economic activity with a major role being played by users. Any company, industry, sector, city, region or country is able to generate value, business, economic or social value, when integrating new or improved services. Value through services is generated building on new ways of interacting between users and providers, between organizations and individuals, between public sector, business sector and third sector. These interactions are growingly based on co-creation and innovation, for which new technologies are of the utmost importance.
