The UK is at an important inflection point in its ambition to create world-class hubs of innovation – places fueled by the technologies, the trust, the tenacity and the teamwork to become genuine destinations of discovery and drivers of new skills, good jobs and broad-based opportunity. Covid-19, Brexit, net zero and levelling up provide a compelling set of reasons to focus harder than ever on what it takes to really marry innovation with purpose and a placed-based mission.
As part of our new partnership with CPC, the UK Innovations District Group is proud to have supported in the making of this report. It reflects our ambition to connect the people and places leading innovation; to create a national network informed by each other’s experiences, and driven by a shared spirit of purpose and co-operation to rethink the priorities and path to success after Covid-19. We hope it will be the start of further research and yet more shared resources and diagnostics that help us all learn and improve together.
