Pioneering place leaders are often not harnessing the creativity and innovation procurement opportunities of the market to solve their pressing service and policy challenges because the public procurement policy doesn’t allow it.
That’s why Connected Places Catapult is engaged with experts and representative bodies from across the public procurement sector to challenge the myths surrounding public procurement, share pioneering practice, set out new pathways and outline best practice for the procurement of new and innovative solutions and innovation procurement by the public sector.
Learn about the project and discover resources which can help you procure innovation in our webinars. If you have missed the opportunity to catch us live, you can find the recordings of our webinars below:
