We
are
experiencing
massive
growth,
attracting
digital
leaders
from
across
the
globe.
Together
we
are
creating
an
engine
of
open
innovation
to
improve
people's
lives,
rising
to
today's
societal
challenges.
We
are
creating
jobs,
we
are
building
a
community
together,
we
are
building
a
future
that
we
all
want
to
live
in.

D

I'm
graham
farant
bcp
council's
chief
executive
bournemouth,
christchurch
and
paul
council
is
one
of
the
larger
local
authorities
in
the
uk
serving
a
rapidly
growing
population
of
400
000
people
we
are
set
in
an
outstanding
natural
environment.
We
have
award-winning
beaches,
parks,
events
and
an
open
culture
of
connected
communities.
D
D
Growth
as
we
are
experiencing,
brings
an
increased
demand
for
council
services
against
a
backdrop
of
the
current
global
environment.
Sustainability
is
key.
We
are
passionate
about
leading
our
communities
to
a
sustainable
future,
a
future
where
innovation,
digital
connectivity
and
collaboration
are
at
the
heart
of
our
exciting
plans
and
our
thriving
place.
D
E
E
So
what
are
we
doing?
We
are
focusing
our
efforts
on
a
number
of
areas.
This
includes
supporting
healthcare
and
social
care,
the
people
that
work
with
our
vulnerable
adults
and
children,
those
who
are
working
with
people
at
risk
of
suicide
and
those
who
are
working
with
the
vulnerable
and
the
homeless
as
well.
We
are
also
seeking
to
protect
the
local
environment
by
reducing
energy
consumption
and
promoting
sustainable
transport,
and
importantly,
we
will
be
focusing
on
increasing
productivity
and
delivering
industry.
E
E
Whilst
we
have
significant
smart
place
ambitions,
those
ambitions
will
never
be
realized
unless
we
are
able
to
create
a
financially
sustainable
smart
place
that
financial
sustainability
comes
as
part
of
promoting
leading-edge
technologies,
but
importantly
also
promoting
a
leading
edge.
Smart
place
business
model.
This
involves
investors,
technology
companies
and
the
community
sharing
the
benefits
from
working
together.
E
E
If
any
investors
would
like
to
know
more
about
this
opportunity,
then
please
get
in
touch
with
our
smart
place
team
by
taking
a
positive
value
generating
place-based
approach.
We
are
already
attracting
uk
companies
due
to
the
innovative
digital
ecosystem
that
we
are
establishing
and
the
significant
attraction
of
dorset
as
an
area
to
do
business.
We
are
encouraging
international
companies
to
place
their
uk
base
in
our
area.
D
D
D
E
E
One
of
our
key
goals
is
to
develop
digital
solutions
that
can
be
traded
across
the
world
having
grown
them
here
on
our
fertile
ground.
Bcp
council
has
hit
upon
the
blueprint
for
success.
Digital
innovation
is
a
significant
engine
for
growth
and
economic
prosperity,
and
we
would
like
you
to
be
part
of
our
success
story.
We
are
implementing
a
cutting
edge
beyond
state-of-the-art
digital
ecosystem.
E
D
The
bournemouth
christchurch
and
paul
area
is
experiencing
rapid
growth
twice
as
fast
as
the
average
in
the
last
10
years
and
on
track
to
be
in
the
top
five
cities
for
growth
in
the
next
20
years.
Bcp
is
in
the
top
five
locations
for
digital
leaders
to
locate
it.
It's
a
place
where
people
like
yourselves
choose
to
be
they're
here,
to
learn,
to
grow,
to
explore
and
to
work
and
relax,
to
contribute
and
be
supported
to
innovate
and
to
have
fun.
D
D
B
C
G
I
think
that
bcp
are
actually
going
beyond
the
court
of
duty.
I
think
that
they
are
being
flexible.
I
think
that
they
are
enabling
the
partner,
I
think,
they're,
actually
very,
very
engaging
and
they're
listening.
More
importantly,
you
know,
if
we're
going
back
to
them
and
saying
or
questioning
why
they're
doing
certain
things,
you
know
we're
getting
the
responses
but
they're,
giving
us
the
ability
to
be
able
to
go
back
and
explain
to
them
a
different
solution.
G
G
I
think
it's
also
very
important
to
have
an
open
standard.
If
we
don't
have
the
open
standard,
then
you
know
everybody's
going
to
go
off
and
work
in
silos,
etc
and
not
bring
that
whole
project
together.
So
I
think,
by
having
the
interoperability
between
people
and
technology
and
the
standards
and
the
framework
on
bcp
and
what
we're
trying
to
achieve,
I
think
that's,
probably
the
most
crucial
part
of
this
project.
H
K
J
The
approach
bcp
are
taking
is
that
they
understand
that
if
we
invest
carefully
and
intelligently
into
the
security
infrastructure,
it
becomes
an
enabler.
It
provides
the
confidence
to
actually
unlock
the
data
from
the
various
silos
and
then
to
build
sort
of
like
the
higher
value,
applications
and
services
on
top
having.
J
K
L
Local
authority
plays
for
me
three
key
roles:
I'm
nick
giles
chief
product
officer
with
daisy
one
is
about
the
digital
infrastructure
that's
available
locally.
The
second
is
about
the
evangelism
of
the
local
ecosystem,
to
commercial
providers
bringing
in
infrastructure
for
commercial
networks,
and
then
the
third
piece
is
around
becoming
that
catalyst
for
an
ecosystem
of
solution
partners,
end
users
and
a
whole
community
of
like-minded
companies
that
can
work
together.
H
J
F
H
L
With
the
challenge
program
and
the
community
of
end
users
that
we
have
within
bcp
we're
able
to
very
quickly
test
and
validate
our
solutions
to
understand
what
works,
but
actually,
more
importantly,
to
understand
what
doesn't
work.
So
we
can
fail
early
and
move
on
and
that's
what
the
community
gives
us.
G
K
H
H
C
M
O
Good
afternoon
kate,
it's
a
pleasure
to
be
here.
My
name
is
oscar
marti,
I'm
the
director
of
catalon
training
investment,
which
is
the
tree
promotion
agency
of
the
government
of
catalonia
from
the
office
in
london,
which
covers
the
uk
and
allen,
and
our
role
is
to
support
catalan
companies
in
expanding
in
overseas
markets,
as
well
as
innovation,
trade
promotion,
investment
tasks.
B
J
M
M
N
Well,
there
are
two
clues:
I
guess
to
our
our
strategy
that
one
is
the
source
of
our
funding,
which
is
the
national
productivity
infrastructure
fund
or
investment
fund.
That
was
set
up
in
2016,
with
a
billion
pounds
of
funding
to
to
fund
infrastructure
for
the
uk,
to
work
out
the
business
case
for
investment
in
5g
to
lead
the
r
d
in
the
uk's
5g
services
and
for
5g
technology,
and
the
third
part
is
to
establish
the
ecosystem
of
5g
players
in
the
uk.
N
But
the
technology
on
its
own
doesn't
make
a
business
case.
So
you
need
that
you
need
both
the
services
and
the
infrastructure
to
to
create
the
the
market
and
the
value
for
it,
and
that
creates
stories
which
are
absolutely
crucial
to
people
understanding
what
5g
is
capable
of
and
whether,
where
people
might
want
to
use
it.
O
We
if
we
come,
for
example,
to
speak
about
smart
cities.
We
this
is
one
sector
that
we
look.
We
pave
lots
of
attention
to
it.
A
few
years
ago,
we
started
like
mapping,
lots
of
detail
and
then
starting
to
identify
the
whole
value
chain
of
solutions,
services
and
products
that
will
help
cities.
In
this
all-encompassing
sector.
O
We
can
say
of
smart
cities
and
what
what
we
did
then
was
like
to
identify
a
total
of
about
450,
catalan
companies
working
in
this
sector,
and
it's
actually
how
we
became
to
to
get
in
touch
with
councils
such
as
bcp,
with
very
interesting
programs
for
smart
cities,
which
are
actually
a
fantastic
channel
to
go
into
the
uk
for
the
field.
Smart
cities,
in
this
particular
case.
P
B
M
And
I
think
the
priority
of
the
algorithms
right
now
is
to
try
and
protect
lives,
the
economy
and
jobs.
So,
as
a
consequence
of
this,
our
chancellor
of
exchequer
announced
a
one-year
funding
settlement
on
that
basis
and
they
intend
to
announce
the
details
of
that
settlement
on
the
25th
of
november.
So
we'll
have
to
see
what
comes
out
of
this
london
settlement
before
we
actually
set
out
our
long-term
strategy
for
our
projects,
but
in
their
medium
term.
M
Now
our
priority
really
is
to
get
some
of
these
projects
to
completion
and
offer
some
live
services.
We're
particularly
excited
about
two
of
our
projects,
which
are
coming
up
shortly.
One
is
on
back
office
parent
projects,
which
is
helping
council
offices
move
out
the
planning
process
itself.
One
of
the
things
that
is
a
minimum
is
we
must
have
three
councils
working
together
on
a
project
and
preferably
a
diverse
range
of
councils.
This
means
the
solution
we
develop
could
actually
be
scaled
and
replicated
very
quickly
because
it
has
same
commonalities
across
for
all
councils.
M
N
Yeah,
okay,
so
we
are
kind
of
out
of
quite
a
strong
pivot
point.
In
our
program,
we've
now
allocated
all
of
the
200
million
pounds
that
we
originally
set
up
in
the
fund
two
projects:
we've
done
that
through
a
series
of
five
competitions
and
at
the
end
of
it,
by
the
time
we
finished,
we
will
have
run
something
in
the
region
of
40
projects,
so
not
all
of
those
will
establish
separate
test
beds.
N
Some
of
them
are
working
on
more
trials
on
the
same
testbeds
or
expanding
the
functionality
and
capability
of
those
those
test
beds
that
were
originally
designed.
If
you
want
to
go
and
have
a
look,
there's
a
our
ecosystem
builder,
that's
called
uk5g.org
it's
free
to
join.
I
strongly
encourage
anybody.
Who's
listening
to
go
and
join
in
and
you'll
be
able
to
get
a
lot
more
detail
on
what
all
those
projects
are
about
and
where
they've
got
to.
N
So,
although
we've
allocated
the
funds
in
terms
of
grants
to
to
those
to
those
projects,
many
of
them
are
still
looking
for
partners,
and
many
of
them
still
got
fun.
You
know
because
they're
making
themselves
to
say
the
industry
won't
stand
still
and
has
got
a
long
way
to
go
in
its
journey.
So
we
see
a
lot
more.
B
O
We
we
identify
all
the
opportunities
that
are
going
on
through
the
sbri
program
in
the
uk
and
that's
been
awesome
example
with
with
the
bcp
council,
in
which
we
already
have
catalan
companies
looking
at
specific
opportunities
to
work
with
the
council.
It's
been
working,
but
definitely
we
always
need
to
adjust
the
strategy
within
the
framework
of
the
new
developments.
B
P
We've
got
a
very
good
track
record
so
far
about
about
leading
on
this,
and
we've
already
got
a
a
very
good
digital
and
creative
economy.
Already
we've
been
top
of
the
league
tables
for
the
the
fastest
growing
creative
and
digital
economy
for
a
number
of
years.
It's
it's
a
bit
deeper
than
just
having
a
good
digital
sector.
It's
the
reason.
We've
got
all
these
people
here,
it's
drawing
all
of
those
things
together,
be
it
funding,
be
a
new
investment.
What
what?
What
role
does
a
local
authority
play?
P
Not
just
in
bringing
people
together
but
demonstrating
what
that
actually
means
on
the
ground
as
well?
So
actually,
we've
got
a
very
good
opportunity
and
a
big
piece
of
work
that
we're
doing
about
actually
demonstrating
and
leading
from
the
front.
So
you
know
oscar
mentioned
that
there's
obviously
interest
from
catalonian
companies.
We've
got
a
couple
of
catalonian
companies
at
the
moment
that
we're
working
very
closely
with
and
we're
putting
in
a
bid
to
innovate.
Uk
around
things
like
real-time
vehicle
occupancy
bus
occupancy
traffic
management
policy.
P
N
B
People
talking
holding
debates
about
postcovid,
obviously
unique
to
the
uk.
We've
obviously
got
the
post
brexit
debate
as
well,
so
collectively
together.
We
need
to
understand
how
we
can
use
the
digital
sector
to
aid
in
the
recovery
of
the
uk
economy.
So
initially
to
yourself.
Sheldon
are
the
priorities
of
the
mxt
lg
changing
as
a
result
of
kobit
and
brexit.
M
No
I'd
say
we're
not
going
to
change
our
approach.
I
think
it's
what's
happened
with
brexit
and
curve.
It's
just
made
our
approach
more
important
and
more
vital
than
ever.
I
don't
see
an
embed,
agile
working
and
we
want
to
see
the
embedding
of
digital
leadership
and
we
need
to
see
services
that
can
be
spun
up
quickly
and
be
implemented
to
support
communities.
I
look
at
the
beach
check-up
you've
spun
that
up
so
quickly.
I
mean
not
just
just
down
to
having
talented
people
with
working,
agile
communities,
saying
yeah,
we
can
develop
solutions.
M
We
also
want
to
see
a
growth
in
the
marketplace
itself
and
also
we
want
to
see
new
players
come
in.
That's
why
we're
very
keen
to
see
modular
systems
on
the
curve
of
19
we've
developed
a
special
funding
round,
which
is
to
help
councils
prepare
against
curvature.
19
and
wholes
have
come
out
of
the
code
19
and
support
their
communities
thanks.
N
I
think
I'd
agree
with
with
sheldon
that
we're
not
it
doesn't
require,
from
our
perspective,
a
change
in
the
strategy,
because
I
think
the
strategy
was
already
cast
with
with
a
great
deal
of
flexibility
in
it,
but
the
core
themes
are
are
still
there.
What's
changes
the
context.
I
think
that
if
you
ask
people,
I
always
ask
people
when
I
go
to
smart,
smart
x
conferences,
whether
they're,
smart
places,
smart
cities,
smart
communities,
what
would
it
feel
like
to
live
in
a
smart
place?
N
Yeah,
it's
it's
a
place
where
you
feel
like
the
community
that
you're
living
in
is,
is
one
that
you
can
engage
with
that
understands
your
needs
as
an
individual
and
and
and
in
terms
of
the
businesses
and
parts
of
that
community
that
you
want
to
engage
with
that
it
treats
you
as
an
individual.
It
knows
who
you
are.
The
systems
are
integrated
so
that
you
don't
have
to
keep
on
logging
on
to
different
systems
to
access
services.
They
come
to.
You
feel
safe.
It
feels
economically
vibrant.
N
It
feels
clean,
it's
it's
it's
a
good
place
to
live,
I
mean,
and
I
think
that
you
know
we
we're
increasingly
setting
our
standards
higher
and
higher
we're
going
to
see
as
a
result
of
covid
a
lot
more
of
our
services
being
delivered
over
over
mobile
and
other
broadband
services.
So
I
think
there's
a
huge
opportunity
series
opportunities
around
that
now
and
with
with
brexit
yeah
again
I'll
say
it
again.
N
B
You
tony
moving
on
to
oscar
your
perspective
is
obviously
quite
different.
Can
you
tell
us
how
companies
objectives
may
be
changing
as
a
result
of
the
pandemic?
What
are
companies
from
catalonia
looking
for
in
an
area
when
they
think
about
landing
in
the
uk
and
has
the
covid
19
pandemic
changed
the
objectives
of
companies
wanting
to
locate
in
the
uk.
O
Well
clearly,
kovi
19
has
affected
lots
of
companies.
Some
of
them
are
affected
than
others,
but
in
general,
if
we
look
at
the
number
at
the
numbers
in
terms
of
exports
in
terms
of
investment,
the
numbers
are
down
and
you're
asking
me
like
what
would
like
to
see
in
companies
in
particular
when
they
come
into
the
uk.
We
want
to
see
companies
that
are
bringing
something
different.
A
typical
conversation
with
a
company,
something
that
comes
out
is
like
how
competitive
the
market
is
in
the
uk.
B
P
But
but
you
know,
following
on
from
the
the
comments
of
other
speakers
here,
I
think
it's
about
accepting
the
world
that
we're
in
and
and
looking
at
it
and
not
just
finding
the
challenges
but
finding
the
the
opportunities
as
well
and
and
demonstrating
what
that
means
on
the
ground.
You
know
agreeing
with
with
some
of
the
previous
speakers.
P
I
think
one
of
the
other
things
and
again
I'm
going
to
be
a
shameless
cheerleader
for
the
born
with
christchurch
and
pool
area
here.
But
it
is
my
job
is,
is
picking
up
on
the
points
that
tony
and
oscar
made
in
particular
about
how
the
postcovid
world
in
particular,
and
that
that
new
reliance
on
digital
technology
enables
the
geographically
the
geographicality
of
the
workforce,
to
change
dramatically
and
and
on
all
of
those
things,
which
is
why
government
obviously
clearly
sees
that
record
of
delivery.
Hence
why
they
keep
investing
in
us.
P
That's
all
really
important,
but
when
it
comes
down
to
it,
as
oscar
said
it's
lifestyle
as
well,
and
it's
that
natural
environment
and
actually
having
all
of
those
things
together,
is
it's
great.
But
you've
got
to
link
that
with
an
area
that
people
want
to
be
in
and
want
to
actually
live
in
as
well,
and
I
think
that's
a
particular
benefit
that
we've
got
in
the
born
with
christchurch
and
paul
area.
O
C
Is
really
interesting
and
ensuring
to
hear
that
government
departments
are
advocating
bringing
together
services
and
infrastructures
for
a
vibrant
future
in
the
uk,
companies,
investors
and
startups
are
building
a
future
on
our
open
network
to
solve
society's
problems.
This
is
an
exciting
vision
for
how
a
smart
place
could
and
should
be
built.
P
Councillor,
philip
broadhead
deputy
leader
of
bcp
council,
the
world
is
changing.
We
are
focused
on
the
complex
and
growing
demands
of
our
community.
Technology
is
equally
changing
for
bournemouth
christchurch
and
poole.
It's
not
about
technology
for
technology's
sake,
but
about
how
we
can
embrace
technology
to
serve
our
community.
P
P
Many
people
you've
heard
from
today
have
bought
into
the
smartplace
program
and
the
lifestyle
and
opportunities
of
the
bcp
area.
It's
a
special
kind
of
place.
Three
distinct
towns,
one
place
a
coastline
of
opportunity,
a
place
where
heritage
meets
innovation
with
plentiful
green
spaces,
a
sunny
southern
climate,
unrivaled
seafront
spaces
and
active
healthy
lifestyles.
P
P
That's
what
our
smart
place
is
about
a
privileged
open
ecosystem,
an
open
infrastructure
and
an
open
community.
We
are
experiencing
growth,
attracting
digital
leaders
from
across
the
globe.
Together
we
are
creating
our
future
on
an
open
technology
platform
to
improve
people's
lives.
Collaboration
is
at
the
center
of
what
we
do
it
drives
us.
If
you
share
the
vision
of
an
open
culture
and
co-creation,
you
want
to
create
the
art
of
the
possible,
and
this
is
the
place
for
you.
