## About this tender

Connected Places Catapult and Glasgow Airport have collaborated to create the Connected Airport Living Lab, a collaborative R&D asset used to showcase UK-developed innovations, attract investment, and act as an innovation catalyst for the aviation sector. It is also used for testing and demonstrations of a diverse range of innovations aimed at addressing challenges facing the aviation sector, notably the decarbonisation of ground and air operations, the adoption of hydrogen, automation, data analytics and to enhance passenger experience.

We are launching a new project to trial technologies to enhance the provision of special assistance at airports to make air travel more inclusive and accessible to all. We have conducted a period of discovery, including desk research, stakeholder interviews and airport observations and interviews at Glasgow Airport with relevant staff. Using this research, and in collaboration with Glasgow Airport, we have identified two key challenges which would improve customer service at the airport as well as support the Catapult’s aim of supporting UK businesses to scale and grow.
