Innovation Labs

Well, that's it!. It's now the start of the week after our Innovation Lab, so this will probably be our last post on the Blog. Some appreciation is probably in order then - so firstly, a big thanks to all of the mentors, the commisoners and everyone else who supported us into knocking out idea into shape. Secondly, thanks to the staff at Swinton Park for making our stay as comfortable as possible - it's a great place to stay and nothing was to much trouble for them.

Pleasingly, at this stage, It looks like we will be one of the fortunate teams who will be able to have a conversation with the BBC about taking our idea forward this time - which is great for us. Having said that, but we do feel for those who won't, especially as you do start to form a bond with people who are going through the same process as you are, in the same place and at the same time. It seems to have ben a pretty close-run thing, and there certainly weren't any bad ideas as far as we were concerned. We're sure that they will all turn up in some shape or form in the future - we'll certainly be keeping an eye on the companies and organsiations which we've come to know over the last week.

So, keep an eye out for "The National Conversation" and who knows - we might see some of you next year.

Cheers
