First week well underway and so is the buzz

We’re excited to see that our community is responding to Prize2theFuture with hundreds of inquiries. It proves what we have heard and seen from other idea competitions, that this is a cutting-edge tool to encourage innovation and input from a wide range of people.

Use of a website makes it possible to engage local and worldwide competitors and get input from the best minds, no matter where they live. And the interactive map makes sure we can tell our story effectively, showing off the best of Birmingham’s city center.

We hope the crowd keeps growing, because the more people get excited about this new possibility, the better the ideas will be. You have until March 11 to put your team together and develop your entry, or you can go it alone. In the meantime, we will be watching and waiting and trying to spread the word.
