The document discusses the Future Cities Catapult, which is one of seven innovation centers in the UK that aims to commercialize innovations and take them to markets around the world. Specifically, the Future Cities Catapult focuses on addressing challenges facing urban areas, such as increasing populations, inequality, and resource pressures. It plans to create a market for solutions to urban issues by establishing a housing lab for data analytics and modeling, building digital strategy demonstrators in cities, and creating an economic impact database to prove viability and demand to businesses and cities.
