BBC's Innovation Labs programme is holding a launch day in Yorkshire. The initiative brings together BBC Commissioners and independent UK companies to develop and commission pioneering new products and services for the corporation.
Last year a number of Yorkshire companies benefited from developing projects with BBC Commissioners whilst taking part in the Labs. Screen Yorkshire funding will support Yorkshire and Humber companies who are successful in applying for the Labs.
The Innovation Labs will be launched in Leeds on 19th November at The Carriageworks. The event will outline the programme's concept, BBC technology strategy and potential areas of commission in addition to holding Labs workshops to give attendees an idea of what to expect if they apply to take part in the Labs.
This year participants will have the chance to have their work commissioned by executives from BBC News, Vision, Audio/Music, iTV, Nations & Regions and Mobile with applications open to 40 companies across four regions.
During the final stage of the programme participants will get the chance to pitch their prototype ideas to BBC commissioners, who will offer further development commissions for the best ideas at each Lab.
