  • Heading into ‘Phase 2’: Understanding where we want to go

    Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Share on Linkedin Email this link

    The month of March marks the beginning of our second phase of Cambridge Connected strategic plan development.

    We are now moving from reviewing the past four years and understanding where we’ve been, towards refining our goals and understanding where we need to go in the future. All of the feedback received to date will be part of this process, and a full summary report of all Phase 1 activity will be brought to City Council in April.

    We are also pleased to announce that Openly Inc. has been awarded the contract to assist with the strategy development, data analysis and community consultation for Phases 2 and 3 of this project. This is the result of a competitive process following a request for proposals that was issued in January 2020 to seek consulting services. Openly is a certified B-Corp company based in Guelph, with experience in strategy, stakeholder engagement, research and evaluation.

    Stay tuned for more engagement opportunities and information in the coming weeks!
