The IC tomorrow ‘Innovation in Urban Spaces Contest’ will offer up to £140K to businesses to explore and encourage innovation around improving cities, through a range of challenges, including themes of engaging spaces, active citizenship and urban travel. IC tomorrow are looking for innovative proposals from companies with digital solutions relevant to these themes.
Winners will not only benefit from contest funding but will have an exclusive opportunity to collaborate with one of our contest challenge partners, which include Transport for London, Centro, Clear Channel and Atkins.
We aim to see unique solutions with potential appeal to a broad commercial market; successful applicants will then embark on the opportunity to trial their proposed solutions with the industry partners for a minimum duration of 3 months.
The Birmingham briefing event will give applicants the chance to find out more about the application and contest process, gain helpful hints and tips on applying, and will be an opportunity to hear more about each individual challenge.
This is an ideal opportunity for applicants to find out all they need to know for applying to the Innovation in Urban Spaces Contest. For those who are not able to make it to the Birmingham event, we will also be running a briefing event in London and a webinar on the 20 October as well as a further one in Birmingham on the 21 October.
