Socitm is supporting Innovate 08, a Microsoft initiative that will showcase and develop ground-breaking ideas in local government that may have a technology element. The competition will identify and support teams with innovative approaches to tackling some of the biggest issues facing councils today, including social inclusion, place-shaping, community engagement and environment.
The competition is being run with LGC, and further information about entry criteria and how to enter can be found on the
LGC website. The closing date is 24 July and the winner will have the opportunity to present their solution at
Socitm 2008.
