This paper sets out Nesta’s strategy for the next three years.

The paper details what we will and won’t do, and how we intend to make the most of our resources and capabilities to mobilise ideas for the common good and boost the UK’s capacity to innovate.

Our intention is for the strategy paper to be viewed as a living document reflecting our current priorities as an organisation. It will be periodically refreshed to reflect our achievements and aims.

Included within the strategy is detail on:

• Nesta's background
• The thinking behind where we apply our resources for most impact
• How we work - our operating models
• What we won't do
• How we intend to measure success
