Juanita Clavijo is an urban innovation specialist with nearly a decade of experience designing and coordinating Living Labs, EU research projects, and applied urban experiments across Europe. As Urban Living Lab Developer at AMS Institute in Amsterdam she leads multi-stakeholder initiatives—most recently coordinating the Marineterrein Living Lab and steering AMS contributions to ATELIER and EU4ADVICE—focusing on governance, stakeholder engagement, and monitoring & evaluation. Her background in architecture and urban planning, combined with roles at imec and the MIT Media Lab, gives her a rare blend of design-led thinking and data-driven urban research applied to energy, mobility, food systems and inclusion. She excels at maturing and scaling locally embedded solutions, translating co-creation activities into replicable governance models and digital twin use cases. Beyond project delivery she fosters ecosystem building—mentoring startups, enabling cross-disciplinary collaborations, and activating student-industry programs to accelerate urban experimentation. Colleagues describe her as a pragmatic connector who turns complex, multi-actor challenges into actionable pilots that inform city-level decision making.
