4Growth - petition to invest 4G auction proceeds into hi-tech growth

4Growth - Reinvest the 4G auction proceeds in unlocking high-tech growth

4Growth - Reinvest the 4G auction proceeds in unlocking high-tech growth

Please SUPPORT, SIGN and SHARE!

The Government is about to receive up to £4bn from the upcoming 4G spectrum auction. We need your help in arguing that the money, which is a return on past generations’ investment in science and technology, should be reinvested in helping the UK become a growing, high-tech economy.


The ‘4Growth’ campaign is led by the Campaign for Science and Engineering (CaSE) and Nesta, the UK’s innovation foundation.


A number of leading figures who have joined forces in support; physicist, Brian Cox; former Astronomer Royal and President of the Royal Society, Lord Rees; former Chief Secretary to the Treasury and Science Minister, Lord Waldegrave; British doctor and science writer, Ben Goldacre; and Nobel laureate Andre Geim.

You can find out more about the campaign on: www.its4growth.org.uk

You can sign the petition at: http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/40019


After signing the petition, please ask colleagues and contacts in your networks to do the same. It would also be great if you could help promote through any comms channels (websites/e-newsletters/blogs/social media).
