  • Telcom Case Study
    case study 2018 Telcom Networks powers Manchester connectivity vision About Telcom Networks Manchester company Telcom Networks is a company on a mission. Simply put, it wants to build a nation where everyone has access to affordable, ultrafast internet. It’s an ambitious goal, certainly. But from the drive, passion and enthusiasm of its founders you get the feeling that given time they might just pull it off. It all started when two virtually penniless young entrepreneurs looked for the best place in the UK to start a tech business. Information outside London was scant, so they embarked on a bus tour to find out for themselves. Inspired by the Gates Foundation principle of giving back, they shared the data from the journey - by now called Tech Britain - with the rest of the tech community. Stopping off in London just long enough to attend Cabinet Office and Buckingham Palace summits, they The Loop has a terrific platform for helping returned to Manchester and then created the SpacePortX shared workspace for startups. us deploy the first Gigabit HyperCity right The key finding from their tour was just how woeful Britain’s internet connectivity was (as recently as 2016 “ here in Manchester. Being a regional player, it was the third worst in Europe according to the European Commission) and Telcom Networks was born The Loop is easier to access and a lot easier to turn the country into Europe’s best connected. It plans to do this one city at a time, creating what it to work with. They know the buildings, they calls HyperCities - places where fast, affordable internet is ubiquitous and all-pervasive.

  • Annual Report 2015/16
    Annual Report 2015/16 Purpose The aim of the Foundation is: ‘the advancement of education of the public directed towards the promotion, furtherance and dissemination of knowledge of matters associated with the built environment’. We pursue these, where possible, with an emphasis on ‘the multi‐disciplinary nature of design in engineering and architecture’. Chairman’s Statement The year 2015-16 has been very busy with both extensions of existing projects and developing ideas for new and potential projects. Inevitably not all the work developing projects is successful, but when it is it can be the result of many months of work. As well as activities that we have funded (listed at the end of this statement); we were very pleased to be able to extend MADE’s work again for the outstanding educational programme they are providing to make young people aware of a career in the Built Environment professions. We have agreed two other small projects and an agreement to part sponsor an Academic in Residence at the Institution of Civil Engineers to help inform decision making for global solutions. Our financial position is strong, in spite of the continuing economic pressures, and we enter the next year with confidence in continuing the pattern of supporting both short and long term projects. This year we held a Strategic Discussion workshop for about 50 invited guests: The Next 25 Years of The Ove Arup Foundation and we wish to thank everyone who attended for the valuable contributions that they made to make this day a success. We have prepared a report on the discussions and we will be developing and implementing the ideas in the immediate future.

    Principles for Purposeful Business Principles for Purposeful Business How to deliver the framework for the Future of the Corporation An agenda for business in the 2020s and beyond 1 Future of the Corporation Front cover Renewable energy generation illustrates the role business can play in investment, research, new technology, skilled work and solutions to the problems of people and planet. © Getty Images 2 Principles for Purposeful Business Foreword The British Academy’s purpose is to deepen understanding of people, societies and cultures, enabling everyone to learn, progress and prosper. Our Fellowship draws on the full range of the human experience – from politics to art, and economics to philosophy. The Future of the Corporation programme could not be a better example of the Academy’s work and its ability to draw on such a wide range of ideas. With this new report, the Academy is setting out the conclusions of our Future of the Corporation research and its extensive deliberations. The programme has made new connections, encouraged debate and developed new insights. By engaging a range of experts, practitioners and leaders from different parts of society and different disciplines, it has been able to bring a comprehensive view of the role of business in society. The Academy’s aim in this is not to make prescriptions or advise business on answers to their specific questions. Rather, by laying out an evidence-base and a set of principles we aim to provide a framework for others to build on. We hope that business leaders and their advisers will use this framework as a starting point to develop new practices, lawmakers as a basis for consultation on legal changes, researchers as a rationale for further research on purposeful business and teachers as a foundation for curricula to provide the new skills needed.

    Edinburgh Tram Inquiry Glossary – 28 August 2017 Purpose 1. The subject matter of the Inquiry involves a large number of acronyms (ie TIE), instances of specialist terminology (ie pre-qualification) and the use of fact specific references (ie Project Carlisle). 2. This obviously presents a challenge to the Inquiry team and to the Core Participants both in understanding what is going on and ensuring a minimum of consistency in the use of acronyms or certain words. The glossary provides some assistance to all in understanding core terms. 3. Parties should bear in mind that some acronyms or terms may be used by different parties to refer to different things (ie FM is used to mean both First Minister and Functional Manager). Where this occurs, the exact meaning will depend on the context and users of this glossary should take steps to clarify the meaning intended in that context. 4. This glossary: a.
