Methdod:Learning by Developing
- Starting point: End-User´s Real Problems into
Customer Savvy of SMEs (This is niche business)
- problem based learning + feasibility where to go

Step 1: Collect A Trust of LEAs
Last time we had
Dutch Criminal Police
Helsinki Drug Police
Guardia Civil
Polish Police
This time ENLETS can give us a hand in collecting partners and building trust

Step 2: Set the Scope
• Analyze the LEA´s stories from the field not from commanding centers
• Telephone tapping does not provide the intelligence it used to:
– New audio/video/thermal sensor measures needed at the time when work starts
– You must know where the international warehouses of crime are technologically

Step 3: Collect Adequate SMEs
• Last time we had agile high-tech SMEs from
The Netherlands, Norway and Finland to match the needs of LEA´s Trust

Step 4: Submit Proposal
- Make LEAs shake hands with interested SMEs
- Keep on working on the topic with existing resoursces while waiting evaluation results
