PropTech Engagement Fund Round 2: Q&A Session

The PropTech Engagement Fund was established by DLUHC to work with local authorities to accelerate the use of digital engagement tools, and inform best practice on how digital engagement can improve the planning process.

Following the success of Round 1 of the PropTech Engagement Fund, we are pleased to launch Round 2. This round will support projects that demonstrate how to incentivise communities to positively engage in planning conversations through guidance on the trade-offs and wider benefits of development.

This is an exciting time to work with DLUHC, a wider community of engaged authorities and the PropTech industry. You will be helping to inform best practice and demonstrate what adopting digital citizen engagement could achieve for local authorities and communities.

Please visit our website for further information on the EOI, including application guidance and forms.

We welcome both individual and joint applications from Local Planning Authorities (LPAs). Individual LPAs can apply for up to £125,000 of funding, while joint LPA projects can apply for up to £300,000 of funding
