Digital Hub Development Agency Bill, 2002: Second Stage.

 

As I said, I welcome the concept and the developments which are to take place. I also welcome the impressive composition of the boards of both MediaLab Europe and DMDL. The boards consist of many formidable people with much international expertise which should give a lot of credibility to this project, particularly if we are to attract international investors. Where are the offices in the Guinness Hop Store at present? Where do both of these boards meet? I hope they are not meeting in lavish hotels, because it lends credibility to the project if they meet in Thomas Street, as well as ensuring the project becomes part of the area. It may appear a trivial point whether a board meets in the Berkeley Court or Thomas Street, but we want the project to become integrated into the area. Whatever business takes place should be identified with the area.
