Webinar: 5G Innovation Series - Glasgow City

Our next 5G innovation Region webinar will place the spotlight on the Glasgow City Region and their Smart and Connected Social Places programme, which is funded by the Department of Science, Innovation and Technology's (DSIT) 5G Innovation Region programme. You will hear about how the Region has successfully been using advanced wireless communications and the internet of things (IoT) to drive innovation in: 

• social housing (connected sensors to monitor damp, mould, and heating in social homes)

• social care (smart speakers, to support care and wellbeing services for vulnerable people and improve digital inclusion)

• net zero homes (connected sensors to monitor the impact and benefit of net zero interventions).

The programme has delivered live deployments, business cases to scale solutions, and an open innovation competition that provided local SMEs and third sector organisations with funding and an opportunity to work with councils and partners to develop innovative solutions. The success of the programme has recently been recognised by DSIT, who have now provided an additional £1.9m to expand the programme further.
