Monday, 9th Jan was the last of the Innovation Labs applications deadlines - in this case, for the North-West pilot. We've had a tremendous response, with 36 applications from Yorkshire, 25 from the North-West, and an incredible 108 applications from London! All London and Yorkshire applicants should have heard from us by now - if you haven't, then send an email to Innovation Labs, and we'll get back to you asap. We're just finalising the shortlist for the NW applications now, so applicants should hear back from us within the first few days of next week.
If you were successful, then congratulations, and we look forward to working with you on the Lab! We're going to be completely re-designing this site for the next phase of the project, with areas focusing on each regional lab, and blogs from the labs participants. If you've got any suggestions or feedback about the project so far, then get in touch - we'd love to hear from you.
If you weren't successful, please keep in touch with us through this site or the innovation labs email address. We're planning to run Innovation Labs again next year in the pilot regions and hopefully 3 others, so there will be another opportunity to pitch. In the meantime, there will soon be another similar initiative with a European flavour launched, so watch this space!
