Its purpose was to improve public services in London and reduce their cost through collaborative use of technology.
The work programme was kept under strict review and revised as deemed appropriate by the London Connects Board and multi-sector Steering Group.
Board members were appointed either by the Mayor of London or by the Leaders' Committee of London Councils.
London Connects was also the first organisation to set up a Warning, Advice & Reporting Point (WARP).
This service facilitates information sharing and helps the London boroughs in the fight against electronic attack.
