This fellowship will help to develop the Future Cities Catapult's work on market enablement for innovation in integrated urban systems. It will bring to bear relevant research in the social and economic disciplines to addressing the Future Cities Catapult's objectives of unlocking finance, developing investable propositions and breaking down market barriers for the uptake of integrated urban systems.The fellowship will focus on the development of potential links and partnerships between the Catapult and the ESRC portfolio of activities in Urban Transformations and the Urban Living initiative that draws together the interest of the research councils and Innovate UK.The fellowship will concentrate on developing innovative business and financing models which will then inform new investment theory and the development of business cases for major investment opportunities, with the objective of developing fresh insights and innovative approaches to the challenges facing urban infrastructure implementation. To do this it will be necessary to evaluate and quantify the potential business case and impact of such innovative approaches and combine this with an understanding of the governance mechanisms supporting innovation in integrating urban infrastructure. Lastly any innovation involving urban infrastructure inevitably requires an understanding of citizen engagement in such urban development. Engaging citizens in this way will help foster greater urban resilience. Lastly the growing interconnectedness and connectivity of smart technologies will lead to opportunities to exploit newly available digital data that can better inform and engage citizens, academics and policy makers alike in the development of novel urban systems.The fellowship seeks to engage and support other to engage in transformative thinking and the co-production of knowledge in the field of urban systems. To so this it will be necessary to develop and share knowledge both within the Future Cities Catapult and with stakeholders in the academic, public and private sectors, and in civil society.

这一奖学金将有助于发展未来城市弹射器在为综合城市系统的创新提供市场支持方面的工作。它将运用社会和经济学科中的相关研究，以满足未来城市投融资的目标，即开启金融，开发可投资的主张和打破市场障碍，以适应一体化的城市系统。该奖学金将专注于发展未来城市投融资与ESRC城市转型活动组合和城市生活倡议之间的潜在联系和伙伴关系，该倡议汇集了研究理事会的兴趣和创新英国。该奖学金将专注于开发创新的商业和融资模式，然后为新的投资理论和开发重大投资机会的商业案例提供信息，目的是发展新的洞察力和创新的方法，以应对城市基础设施实施面临的挑战。为此，有必要评估和量化这种创新方法的潜在商业案例和影响，并结合对支持城市基础设施一体化创新的治理机制的了解。最后，任何涉及城市基础设施的创新都不可避免地需要了解公民参与这种城市发展的情况。以这种方式让市民参与进来，将有助于培养更强的城市韧性。最后，智能技术的互联性和连通性越来越强，这将带来利用新获得的数字数据的机会，这些数据可以更好地向公民、学者和政策制定者提供信息，并让他们参与发展新的城市系统。该奖学金旨在参与和支持其他人参与城市系统领域的变革性思维和共同创造知识。为此，有必要在未来城市弹射器内以及与学术界、公共和私营部门以及民间社会的利益攸关方发展和分享知识。
