What the buyer wrote

The Accelerator Light Programme is the first step in testing the Emerging Technology Lab (ETL) at The Crown Estate. The ETL is part of our London Innovation Hub and is designed to help us explore, test, and scale new technologies that can create long-term value for our business, partners, and communities. It will run a focused challenge to source, select and support start ups and deliver 1-2 Proof‑of‑Concepts (PoCs) addressing priority problems for The Crown Estate (TCE), while validating a repeatable accelerator mechanism for Year 2+.
