The Open Innovation Team was founded in 2016 to bring more external expertise and evidence into policy decisions.
We’ve done by this by partnering with universities to increase collaboration with academics and setting up a business-like team that delivers demand-led projects to government customers on a cost-recovery basis.
Over the past eight years, we’ve proven that we add value for our policy customers. In the process, we’ve created a successful business that saves millions for government and generates a healthy surplus each year.
We now want to concentrate on increasing our impact. We’re prioritising policy impact, but we’ll also work to improve government capability, knowledge and efficiency where possible.
That’s why we’re developing new services, testing new partnerships and positioning ourselves to work on higher impact projects.
