Building capacity, creating partnerships and leveraging data

Innovate UK’s £60 million programme is using user-centred design to help local authorities and businesses deliver new solutions that benefit people, improve local services, and open markets for economic growth.

Join this webinar series to hear key insights from the seven Net Zero Living Programme Demonstrator projects, showcasing impact, lessons learned, and how this work can be replicated and scaled across the UK and beyond.

Session 2: Building capacity, creating partnerships and leveraging data

The role of councils as connectors and brokers is evolving. By building enabling ecosystems of governance, finance, leadership, and partnerships, councils turn ambition into delivery. The effective use of data and digital platforms can unlock insight and decision-making that accelerates this coordinated, place-based progress.

This webinar will demonstrate how the Net Zero Living Programme places have used their convening power to align networks, attract investment, and drive innovation with visible local impact.
