1 Consortium for the Demonstration of Intelligent Systems (CDIS) Jane Holmes

2 Priorities are economic growth, skills, transport and housing, as well as reforming public services and reducing the region's welfare bill. Within the financial plans, there is money to specifically to support innovation.

3 The development of CDIS (WMCA Innovation Working Group) Any WMCA innovation proposal needs to: Be an ambitious, collaborative innovation driver for WMCA Build on and integrate existing research and technology strengths Involve universities, Catapults, Research and Technology Organisations, Science Parks, businesses and public services Create new market opportunities and improve global competiveness Improve the efficiency and effectiveness of public services

4 The development of CDIS Priority areas: Energy, Mobility and Health Existing regional strength in intelligent systems An intelligent system uses a feedback loop of data, which provides evidence for informed decision-making An intelligent system can monitor measure analyse communicate and act based on information captured from sensors.

5 Intelligent Systems in Energy Monitors how long it takes for your home to warm up, how warm you like each room, your schedule, which rooms you use most, weather reports and forecasts, who s at home and who is coming home. Analyses and heats your home accordingly.

6 HEALTH BENEFITS Air Quality Active Ageing Countering Obesity Personalised Health SOCIAL BENEFITS Inclusion Community cohesion Wellbeing Security Key = Priority Sectors = Contributing local technical strengths and expertise ECONOMIC BENEFITS Innovative products / processes User driven market opportunities Export/ inward investment Efficiency savings

7 CDIS WMCA Workshop Attendees Universities Science Parks Local Authorities LEPs Companies NHS Catapults Others* *WMITA, MTC, Sustainability WM, Medilink

8 Key Challenge Areas Identified (that may be tackled with an intelligent systems approach) Energy: energy security and policy, and air quality Mobility: mobility as a service; freight and logistics; infrastructure standards across multiple platforms Health: self-management and awareness; quality, consistency and security of data and interfaces; applications of existing systems in a health setting

9 Consultations so far (with WMCA 6 research active universities*) Emerging strengths: Energy systems, and the retrofitting of energy efficient technologies Autonomous vehicles, route optimisation, simulation and modelling Technology enabled health management Manipulation, mining, analysis and extrapolation of large sets of data Also consulted Innovation Birmingham, Digital Birmingham, Energy Systems Catapult, WMITA, WMAHSN, Sustainability WM, RWE Npower, Amey and further consultations are planned. Further interest welcomed! *Aston, Birmingham, BCU, Coventry, Warwick, Wolverhampton

10 Proposal to the WMCA Programme Board Year 1: Development of a network to join up strengths; (c. 500k) identification of needs and challenges; co-ordination and cross fertilization of existing projects, and the translation of intelligent solutions between sectors. Year 2: Continuation of the Y1 activity, plus pump-priming grants (c. 1.5m) offered to develop collaborative demonstration activity. Years 3-5: Continuation of Y1 and Y2 activity, plus funding for (c. 5mpa) equipment and facilities to facilitate better translation of research into practice. Funding is being sought via the WMCA Devolution Package, which could be matched with ESIF. HMT have also recently expressed an interest.

11 CDIS Summary With a focus on Energy, Health and Mobility, the aim is to build and join up existing strengths, expertise, data sets, research projects and planned projects in intelligent systems, to share, expand, demonstrate and exploit the benefits of these technologies for the wider good. jane@hostconsultingltd.co.uk
