Ecosystem.approach.also.includes.the.idea.of.strong.interdependency..This.means. that.one.cannot.easily.take.away.any.actor.from.the.system.and.“ekols”..This.kind.of. manoeuvres.can.lead.to.difficult.crises.or.even.to.total.collapse.of.the.whole.system.. We.use.this.metaphor.to.describe.the.very.high.level.proximity,.we.in.Finland,.have. developed.between.industries.and.universities,.especially.between.the.industries. and.the.universities.of.applied.sciences..Today.the.interdependency.between.these. actors.in.regional.innovation.systems.is.so.large,.that.we.need.to.postulate.a.new. theoretical.approach.for.practical.analysis.and.policy..This.is.necessary.because.the. old.theoretical.models.of.innovation.systems,.e.g..the.triple helix.model,.are.too. mechanical.or.“slow”.ones.for.the.conditions.of.excited.develpment..In.addition,. they.posit.certain.aloofness.between.the.actors,.universities,.regional.administration. and.industries..(Tulkki.2006a,.39-50.) Moreover,.the.traditional.triple.helix.orientation.has.generated.and.let.space. for.so.called.intermediary.or.mediator.organizations..These.organizations.have. justified.their.existence.by.necessity.to.generate.a.bridge.between.universities.and. working.life..For.example,.there.has.been.a.lot.of.speech.of.translation.problems. between.“the.university.language”.and.“the.working.life.language”..We.admit,.such. problems.have.been,.even.in.Finland,.but.twenty.years.ago..Today,.universities.and. working.life.speak.the.very.the.same.language,.and.very.fluently..In.fact,.the.so. called.mediator.organizations.have,.quite.a.lot,.changed.from.“bridge-builders”.to. useless.“recourse-gluttons”..(Tulkki.2006b,.223-235) The.ecosystem.approach.includes.an.assumption.of.very.close.co-operation. between.universities.and.industries..Within.this.approach,.it.is.even.possible.to. speak.of.some.kind.of.merger.process.or.confluence.of.working.life.and.university. cultures..Anyway,.the.ecosystem.approach.opens.a.window.to.a.common.learning. and.innovation.environment.of.universities.and.industries..From.this.point.of.view,. it.is.unreasonable.any.longer.to.spend.resources.to.“bridge-building”..It.is.more. useful.to.place.this.money.into.innovation.process,.itself..(Tulkki.2007a,.85-99) According.to.Antti.Hautamäki.(2007).the.universities.of.applied.sciences.have. several.functions.in.an.ecosystem.of.innovations..They,.besides.educate.specialists. for.working.life,.also.are.in.very.close.co-operation.and.interaction.with.regional. industries.in.their.research.and.development.activities..The.universities.of.applied. sciences.are.the.network-builders.in.ecosystem;.they.as.diversified.and.multidis- ciplinary.actors,.operate.constantly.in.different.“ekols”,.and.because.of.this,.can. link.knowledge.and.innovations.within.and.between.regional.ecosystems.of.in- novations..The.universities.of.applied.sciences.are.also.the.reasserts.of.culture.of. creativity.in.their.sphere.of.influence. The.core.competence.of.the.universities.of.applied.sciences.is.their.know-how. in.understanding.and.generating.learning;.they.are.the.experts.of.learning.in.the. regional.ecosystem.of.innovations..This.means.that.the.universities.of.applied.sci- ences.are.in.key.position.in.guiding.and.enriching.the.flows.of.knowledge.in.the.

Pasi Tulkki system..Therefore.it.is.very.important.that.the.universities.of.applied.science.act.as. the.testers.and.forerunners.of.learning.wisdoms..Constant.research-.and.develop- ment.activity.in.the.field.of.learning.guarantees.the.best.equipment.for.firms.and. enterprises.in.their.innovation.processes..As.well.known,.learning.and.innovation. are.only.different.sides.of.the.coin,.ultimately. Presently,.the.Finnish.universities.of.applied.sciences.are.very.keen.on.integra- tion.of.education.and.research.and.development.activities..There.are.very.many. practical.applications.of.doing.this.in.different.universities..The.ruling.trend.is. the.increasing.participation.of.students.in.firm-led.innovation.processes.(Tulkki. 2007b,.69-74)..For.example,.the.faculty.of.business.and.culture.in.Kymenlaakso. University.of.applied.sciences.has.formed.KymiDesign.&.Business.community. for.research.and.development.activities..For.students.and.teachers.it.is.a.learning. environment,.where.they.can.work.in.actual.innovation.processes..For.firms.and. enterprises.KymiDesign.&.Business.is.a.service.organization,.which.can.offer.them. multidisciplinary.and.diversified.services.in.their.innovation.activities..In.the.year. 2007.KymiDesign.&.Business.community.carried.out.research.and.development. projects.for.more.than.150.regional.firms.and.enterprises..(Tulkki,.Utriainen.&. Vilen.2007,.20-24.) The.integration.of.education.and.research.and.development.activities.is.a.proc- ess,.which.entails.all.resources.and.skills.of.the.universities.into.firms’.and.enter- prises’.innovation.processes..One.can.see.that.in.a.regional.ecosystem.of.innovations. the.universities.of.applied.sciences.and.other.universities.act.as.a.comprehensive. actor,.which.offers.its.all.know-how.in.use.in.innovation.processes..University’s. participation.in.regional.ecosystem.of.innovations.does.not.refer.to.only.research. and.development.functions.of.the.university;.it.is.a.question.of.implementation. of.all.activities.and.functions.12
