The next stage of the digital mentors process is now underway, with the specification for the tender now sent out to the 5 consortia bidding for the fund.
You can download a PDF of the document here.
We hope that all Voiceboxers will take a good look at the document and see how they could contribute, both in terms of ideas and also where they could take a lead in developing that part of the bid and being an integral part of the consortium delivering it.

who are the four other consortia bidding?
Good question, Sean. MediaTrust are one, and NAVCA another. As to the other two, no-one knows.
At a first reading, the main thing that surprised me was the 0.75 weighting for sustainability and that the sustainability section seems to be expecting grant funding rather than any fully or partially self-supporting model.
