The Journey

2100 BC?

• Ancient China, soldiers stationed along the

Great Wall would alert each other of impending

enemy attack by signalling from tower to tower.

In this way, they were able to transmit a

message as far away as 750 kilometres (470

mi) in just a few hours

2100 BC

• Polybius, a Greek historian, devised a more complex system of alphabetical smoke signals around 150 BCE, which converted Greek alphabetic characters into numeric characters.

It enabled messages to be easily signalled by holding sets of torches in pairs. This idea, known as the "Polybius square", also lends itself to cryptography and steganography. This cryptographic concept has been used with Japanese Hiragana and the Germans in the later years of the First World War.

150 BC

• On 13 May 1897, Marconi sent the world's first

ever wireless communication over open sea.

The experiment, based in Wales, witnessed a

message transversed over the Bristol Channel

from Flat Holm Island to Lavernock Point in

Penarth, a distance of 6 kilometres (3.7 mi).

The message read "Are you ready".

• The first official UK mobile phone call was

made by comedian Ernie Wise on New Year’s

Day 1985. But an earlier call was made that day

to Sir Ernest Harrison, chairman of what was

then Racal Vodafone, by his son Michael, who

said: “Hi, it’s Mike. Happy New Year. This is the

first-ever call on a UK mobile network.”

• The concept of the Internet of Things was

invented by and term coined by Peter T. Lewis

in September 1985 in a speech he delivered at

a U.S. Federal Communications Commission.

• Kevin Ashton supposedly coined the phrase

"Internet of Things" while working for Procter

& Gamble in 1999.

1985 or 1999

Connectivity

• For any smart city initiative

connectivity is key

A Smart City Framework for Smart Growth

In the beginning…

The goal of the Web is to serve humanity. We build it now so that those who come to it later will be able to create things that we cannot ourselves imagine.

- Tim Berners-Lee

By 2009, 25% of the world is online!

And in 2009, the Internet went Mobile and became Ubiquitous!

And with Internet Ubiquity came Industry Disruption

More and more major businesses and industries are being run on software and delivered as online services—from movies to agriculture to national defense. Many of the winners are Silicon Valley-style entrepreneurial technology companies that are invading and overturning established industry structures. Over the next 10 years, I expect many more industries to be disrupted by software, with new world-beating Silicon Valley companies doing the disruption in more cases than not.

Marc AndreessenWhy Software Is Eating The World

More powerful phones means more disruption

The world's most popular media ownerCREATES NO CONTENT

The most valuable retailerHAS NO INVENTORY

The largest accommodation provider OWNS NO REAL ESTATE

The world's largest taxi companyOWNS NO VEHICLES

The Taxi industry is a notable victim

Meanwhile in another galaxy called “Smart Cities” …

What is broken about Smart Cities Today?

Mostly Tax/Debt funded projects without

So what does a DigitalTown look like?

The City Website becomes the home page of the city to search, connect and transact

locally.

A mobile application and single-sign-on provides

instant access to public and private services.

First-time Visits become memorable Experiences cemented by Relationships

Practical Considerations and Closing Thoughts

Creating a Smart City is a Process not an Event. It should feel like a movement with a shared mission.

City management itself may not lead the multi-stakeholder buy-

in process

Merchant participation may start with smaller retailers and

virtual operators before larger retailers

There will early adopters, late adopters and non-adopters

• Central to the project is the creation of a state of the art big data hub – ‘MK Data Hub’

• This will support the acquisition and management of vast amounts of data relevant to city’s systems

• Located in the heart of the city at University Campus Milton Keynes

MK Data Hub

The MK Data Hub will curate and make available a variety of

Big Data sources to 90 SME’s;

• Local and National Open Data resources – opening up of

non-personal data (data.gov.uk)

• Data streams from key infrastructure networks (energy,

transport, water etc)

• Relevant Sensor Networks ( weather, pollution)

• Satellite Data

• Data “crowdsourced” from social media or through

specialised apps such as Facebook, Twitter etc

• Wholesale Data – buyers and sellers can come together

Big Data

Data Science

MK Data Hub will also provide a range of new business

engagement services that will utilise advanced novel Big Data

science methods such as visual analytics, data mining,

predictive analysis which will analyse, enrich, annotate and

integrate data sources to transform “ raw” into “rich” data

Energy

We are collecting data about driver behaviour in the city and devising new strategies on reducing peak hour demand. This includes coupling EV charging with solar electricity generation making use of local battery storage at home

We are collecting , collating and analysing Milton Keynes energy data to create a living energy Open Energy map that will empower local communities and businesses to understand energy trends. This will use a multiple of sources – citizens data, open data, satellite etc

Transport

• To combat traffic congestion in the fastest growing city in the UK, we are developing a city wide Transport App called Motion Map.

• Available to the public in 2017 and will show movements of people and vehicles across the city in real time

• It will include embedded timetables, car parking, bus and cycle information, crowd density and congestion

• Sensor based technology, small cameras and visual analytics will be used

• This will not only provide Citizens with access to personalised information but will allow community groups and business with a platform to build new cloud enabled transport services

Tel. 01483 808301

“ Of the various tax instruments available to government, R&D Tax Credits have the advantage that they seek to help companies that are themselves prepared to invest in R&D. Government does not need to choose sectors or companies, with the result that R&D can be encouraged in the widest possible range of sectors, taking advantage of businesses’ own insights into likely breakthroughs”

Introduction by HMRC of Advance Assurance.

For existing claimants the claim is made after their Financial year end as part of the normal Corporation Tax submission, and HMRC have the right to question the claim or supporting evidence of costs etc.

For new claimants turning over less that £2m, and employing less than 50 staff, since December 2015, they can request “Advance Assurance” from HMRC.

This would be agreed on a project by project basis in advance of the R&D being carried out, or at least in advance of a formal claim – but only claimed on submission of tax returns, so after the end of the financial year that the qualifying expenditure is incurred.

If agreed, HMRC will, or say they will, make no enquiries for three years, as long as the company sticks to the agreed plan.

In order to agree, HMRC will want to see a similar “justification” of the R&D as qualifying, as they would have to make in a normal retrospective claim, as well as estimated costs and duration of project.

Advantages

For young companies looking for funding, acceptance for advance assurance would provide evidence that HMRC would fund roughly between 19% and 33% of qualifying R&D costs.

Once agreed, and provided company sticks to plan, that contribution is secure – HMRC promise of no enquiries.

Potential Issues

Approval process would be time consuming with no guarantee of success. Hard to know what would happen if Company project was turned down,

then later the company claims in the normal way. The approval process will be handled electronically (web, email and phone)

by one HMRC R&D Unit. No obvious right of appeal if rejected. Every applicant’s project would be examined by an HMRC Inspector – right

now they themselves say that only about 5% of current retrospective claims are examined.

Situations where we can help

New Claimants where R&D has not been previously carried out or recognised.

Existing claimant where they want to be sure they are claiming all they are

entitled to claim and only what they are entitled to claim. Typically companies

say “ We have it all under control”.. We often find that they do not.

Existing claimants where HMRC have instigated enquiries into new or previous

claims or both.

Situations where companies are using other R&D Tax consultancies and want to

compare service levels and/or costs.

We offer a free audit on previous claims where there is still time for

amendments.

Where an Accountant is bidding to new clients and wants to demonstrate an

expertise in R&D Tax Credits.

• Lancaster University’s strategy

• Current developments: focus on linking major new infrastructure developments around Fylde area

• Major opportunity to advance population health in Lancashire

Health in Lancashire: Inequalities

Spend on “complex” individuals

Health: Funding gap in Lancashire

• By 2020/21, estimated gap between patient needs and public sector resource budgets in Lancashire = £805 million

• NHS Five year Forward View emphasises preventing ill health, redesigning services, harnessing innovation and technology, maximising value of NHS budget

• Essential approaches:

1. Address key lifestyle and behaviour change

2. Involve individuals and local communities

3. Join up services
