Thank you for attending our recent event
'Where is the Value in Location Data'

Simon Canning, Operations Director at DDK Positioning shared their journey from developing the idea, raising funding and investment, developing the solution and selected their route to market via Value Added Resellers.

Simon also provided 3 key lessons learned from their journey so far:

It’s important to strike a balance. Your product doesn’t have to be 100% perfect before it is released, so strike a balance between the minimum viable product and polishing the diamond!
Stay Focused. Don’t get distracted by other opportunities that will take the business focus away from the key products/markets you want to focus on.
Make sure you leave a realistic amount of time for each stage in the process and build this into your development/delivery time.

We also had a really engaging networking session as part of the event. Anne Robertson, Head of Services and User Engagement, EDINA, The University of Edinburgh commented:

"Location Data Scotland’s recent event had a dedicated networking session where attendees had the opportunity to meet other individuals at the event in break-out rooms. This was a great opportunity to find out about what others in the sector are doing and to hear about some of the really interesting, innovative products and services utilising and/or generating location data. With the return of physical events still unsure, it is important to have virtual networking events such as these to build communities and help organisations collaborate."

Our next event, which is being delivered in partnership with the Scottish Space Leadership Council as part of the KTN Space and Geospatial Virtual Pavillion at COP26, will take place on 10^th November (12.30-14.30). The session will look at The Future of Transport; particularly how space and geospatial data plays a pivotal role in the future of transportation.
