2023 – A Year In Review

It’s been another eventful year on the Connected Places Podcast and we’ve got a lot to look back on as 2023 draws to a close!

In this episode we revisit some of the stories we’ve featured on the show this year, and the fascinating guests we’ve been able to have on.

We hear from three companies making extraordinary strides on the use of connected digital twins to tackle real world problems; RoyalHaskoningDHV, National Grid ESO and IOTICS.

We return to Bristol Temple Meads station where the UK’s first Station Innovation Zone was launched earlier this year – how are tech entrepreneurs helping to make a Grade 1 listed station fit for purpose for 21^st Century passengers?

We also meet Sir John Armitt, Chair of the UK’s National Infrastructure Commission, whose assessment of the UK’s national infrastructure hit the headlines in the autumn – how can innovation help to maximise infrastructure assets, and where are the opportunities for UK Plc?
