North Northants Summit

Location: Northamptonshire
Client: Bee Bee Developments

In November 2005 David Lock Associates organised and ran the North Northants growth area summit on behalf of Bee Bee Developments, the North Northants Development Company (its formation announced at the event) and other partners. The event attracted over 1,000 attendees and involved a series of expert speaker presentations, various debates on the future shape and character of growth moderated by TV Newsreader Alistaire Stewart, and seminar and workshops on key topics including economy, transport, housing and green infrastructure.

The Summit provided the launch pad for many stakeholders from the public and private sectors involved in delivering growth. DLA prepared the central exhibition and were responsible for all graphic identity, commissioned a film about the sub-region, organised the venue and speakers and attended and facilitated several workshops. We prepared a written contribution to the summit on behalf of Bee Bee published as Agenda for Growth.
