Abstract
Today, London faces extraordinary challenges. From climate change to homelessness, and from spiralling demand for social care to the cost of living crisis, the problems are truly daunting.
London’s local authorities are tasked with responding to these issues - but how can they succeed?
Two things seem clear. First, they cannot hope to develop effective solutions if they rely only on using the same approaches they’ve tried in the past. Second, they cannot do it alone.
In this talk, delivered by Eddie Copeland, Director of the London Office of Technology and Innovation (LOTI), you’ll hear about how boroughs are working together to bring the best of technology, data and innovation to develop new and exciting solutions and reimagine public services.
Eddie will share insights from LOTI’s work with boroughs and the Mayor of London, including exploring the role of data in reaching net zero and adapting to climate change; developing a data platform to tackle rough-sleeping; prototyping new service models to support vulnerable adults; and creating the capital’s first ever digital inclusion service.
Learn about the art and craft of public sector innovation!
