March – July 2014
Landscape review
providing initial

existing solutions where they
can be found
»Challenges subsequently
prioritised…

19. Market Place

20. The market place
1. Decide which three challenges you’d like
to work on (where could you add value?)
2. Put you name down on those three, one
per timeslot
3. First come, first served, to avoid
disappointment.
