Learning Lab Denmark (LLD), a research and development institute, encountered many of the difficulties typically experienced by start-ups, especially obstacles that involve developing a set of routines for getting things done. In other respects, LLD faced several distinct challenges that are specific to its charter. Describes in detail the history behind the formation of Learning Lab Denmark: the goals and the organizing principles underlying LLD and its sub-components; and the various personnel roles and issues, including performance problems, criticism, and paradoxes that arose in the first couple of years.
