Recently @rachelcoldicutt published a green paper From Hype to Hope: How Networked Neighbourhoods can make innovation work for everyone
It gave me an assortment of jumping off points to discuss "innovation", culture change and how to build more spaces like @DoESLiverpool and grow what we're doing there.

@DoESLiverpool @amcewen thank you for this! Have just got some funding to do the next bit of this so will be in touch very soon.
@rachelcoldicutt @DoESLiverpool you're welcome. Thanks for the original paper!
I think the funding stuff could have been a bit more nuanced, but it was already far too long and the answer to that is an essay of its own that I've not worked my way into yet
