Support Cambridge in bid to win £25m in the Future Cities Demonstrator Programme

Do you have an idea that would improve transport, resource management, transparency or digital engagement in Cambridge? Cambridge Future City wants to hear about it!

From the Cambridge Future City website:

The Cambridge Future City project has been funded by the Technology Strategy Board to complete a feasibility study for Cambridge as a ‘Future City Demonstrator’. According to the Cambridge Future City website, Cambridge has succeeded with 29 other cities in a first round competition and is now competing to become the single UK demonstrator city with a prize worth £25 million.

The key challenges to prosperity and quality of life in and around Cambridge are business growth and connectivity, housing, transport, water and energy.

If you have ideas, the Cambridge Future City Collaboration Team is asking that you share your ideas with them before 30 October 2012. The earlier the submission the better.

Ideas need not be fully developed and any demonstration projects may ultimately combine several ideas. Ideas which may not be possible to implement immediately may still be of interest for planning for the long term.

To submit an idea, email either liz.stevenson@cambridgeshire.gov.uk or claire.ruskin@cambridgenetwork.co.uk
