Innovation Future Zone at ecobuild 2011

The Technology Strategy Board, Modern Built Environment KTN and EPSRC are joining forces to deliver the Innovation Future Zone at ecobuild2011 from 1-3 March 2011. The Innovation Future Zone will demonstrate exemplars of leading-edge innovation as a prominent part of the UK’s leading built environment exhibition.

Ecobuild 2010

In 2010 the Innovation Future Zone demonstrated 22 new or near to market technologies with visitors to the zone invited to vote for their favourite innovation. Pavegen systems won the competition with their innovative energy harvesting floor slab.

The 2011 Competition

The partners are now inviting competition entries for new or near to market technologies relevant to the priority areas of energy efficiency, refurbishment, climate change adaptation and process efficiency to participate in the zone.
If your organisation has a suitable innovation and you have a prototype or demonstrator piece which will fit on to a 40cm by 40cm plinth you are invited to submit an entry to the competition.
All competition entries will be judged by an expert panel consisting of zone partners and other independent industry experts with the winning submissions being notified in January 2011.
Leading up to ecobuild details of the winning entries will be displayed on partner websites to allow visitors to vote for the innovation that they think makes the biggest overall contribution and potential business impact for industry. Visitors to the zone during Ecobuild will also be able to cast their votes leading to the overall winning innovation being announced on the final day of the exhibition.
