«Flying High: shaping the future of drones in UK cities»
«Foreword
We have a golden opportunity to shape the future of
drones in the UK There is a moment in time where a new technology is in its
infancy, where the opportunity exists to shape how it evolves and impacts our
lives. A moment when we can choose for it to be largely beneficial and driven
by the needs of those it will affect.
This is also a moment where a country can position
itself to take the lead in its development and reap the associated economic
benefits.
For drones that
moment in time is now.
There are
competing views of the future of drones in UK cities, and the country at large.
Utopian visions of smart cities, congestion solved, services streamlined.
Dystopian visions of surveillance, nuisance and noise. And for many, not much
vision at all: an uncertain future, seldom thought of in any depth.
The Flying High project intends to shine some light on
this future. To better understand what drones’ place in our lives might be, to
find out what challenges lie in store, to assess the benefits to cities and the
people who live in them, and to start a much-needed conversation to build a
shared view of this future.
This report is
a summary of some of the key things we’ve done and the key facts we’ve learned
as part of this process of engaging with five UK cities, as well as national
stakeholders and experts.
The most
important legacy of Flying High, though, is not in the pages you are reading
now, but in the coalition that has been built, the shared objectives that have
been developed and the future action that will follow».

«Automation, digitalisation and platforms: Implications for work and employment»
«The onset of the digital revolution has resulted in technological advances that are constantly evolving. A key element of concern to policymakers is the impact that these changes will have on the world of work and employment. This report reviews the history of the digital revolution to date, placing it in the context of other periods of marked technological advances and examining how technological change interacts with changes in institutions. Digital technologies have considerable disruptive potential, including making production much more flexible and information more readily available. While the information technology sector has been most affected to date, other sectors are rapidly changing with the diffusion of new technology. The report also examines three key vectors of change: automation of work, the incorporation of digital technology into processes, and the coordination of economic transactions through the digital networks known as ‘platforms’».
