<p class=MsoNormal>Friends<br>
<br>
Excuse the mass mailing.<br>
<br>
You may already have heard from me about the GeoVation Awards program that we
launched a couple of weeks ago. GeoVation has an awards pool of £21,000 to help
some innovative ideas get started. The only requirement is that they use
geography and create some social, economic or environmental benefit. You can
find out more about the Awards Program and browse through the ideas already in
discussion at <a href="https://challenge.geovation.org.uk/">https://challenge.geovation.org.uk/</a>
<br>
<br>
There are two groups of people that we are trying to reach and connect - people
who have an idea (maybe there is something that you wrote down on the back of
an envelope or beer mat ages ago) and people who have the skills and energy to
help the ideas become a reality (you could be a developer, a designer or a
commercial person). Hopefully we can facilitate the connections that will help
to turn ideas into ventures and then into award winners by January. <br>
<br>
If you want to learn a bit more about the GeoVation Awards Program, meet a few
of the ideas owners, get your creative juices flowing with some drinks and
nibbles why not come along to the GeoVation Ideas Forum at the RSA in London on
November 2nd. Registration is free at <a href="http://gvideas.eventbrite.com/">http://gvideas.eventbrite.com/</a><br>
<br>
If you know anyone else within your work or social networks who you think my be
interested in winning one of the GeoVation Awards please forward this
invitation to them<br>
<br>
Thanks and look forward to seeing your GeoVations<br>
<br>
