What is being bought

Published requirement description

Connected Places Catapult is seeking to identify a suitable partner to establish a Regional Office for Technology and Innovation (ROTI), with the ambition to launch in f/y 01 April 2026.

The ROTI will build on the collaborative, data-driven models identified in our research of other regional digital capability programmes. We expect to support the creation of a team to co-ordinate innovation, share best practices, and showcase the potential of digital transformation across a city or region.

We are uncertain of exactly what existing capabilities, plans, challenges and networks exist in each city or region. This means flexibility will be required in defining the nature of support required and offered.
