Q3: There are clearly still major challenges for entrepreneurs aiming to redesign our City. What are they? Red tape or mindset? #CTEWdesign

mindset will make the most difference. Even red tape was white once before a designer changed the colour. #CTEWdesign

Both! Red tape frightens Priv Sector; bad view of govt means entrepreneurs dont see change. Needs Partnership #CTEWdesign.

Red tape and mindset - lots of opportunity for those brave, committed and creative enough! Not about hand-outs! #CTEWdesign

Being the masterminds behind design of the #WDC2014 bid book, do you foresee 2014 being a big year for you biz? #CTEWdesign

Definitely red tape. Entrepreneurs are bold enough to burn the box, but city needs to be open to radical ideas #CTEWdesign

How radical? Are there examples of entrepreneurs willing to go through the paperwork? #CTEWdesign

Big year for all designers. Biggest opportunity is change of focus from transforming btm lines to transforming lives.

#CTEWdesign In a democratic system it takes time to shift peoples minds. Radical solutions need good implementation plans.

Are #entrepreneurs on the ground invited to participate in the design around red-tape & law? #CTEWdesign

Remove tight regulations preventing these ideas from forming>SUCH an effort getting events passed, off-putting #CTEWdesign

Agreed! Hence we should start planting the seeds of change and hiring fresh young minds to help do so :) #CTEWdesign
