It continues to be deeply satisfying to see the breadth of innovation, and vitally, progress towards commercialisation, that we've been able to support through the Innovation Accelerator pilot. Putting control of targeting and selection of interventions in the hands of the local place, allowing more collaboration and development between a wide range of partners, to ensure that what is offered to businesses is more aligned with what they actually need to bring forward interesting new products and services, is starting to really show its value.

Would love to chat sometime Chris Guerin. We're in a similar space.
