Industrial strategy, innovation, and growth

Industrial strategy, innovation, and growth

We convene cross-sector leaders to shape mission-driven growth, balancing regulation with innovation and empowering regional leadership for long-term prosperity.

Delivering long-term prosperity requires more than incremental change; it calls for a mission-driven approach and bold cross-sector partnerships.  

 

We convene leaders to explore how industrial strategy, balanced regulation and regional innovation can unlock growth across regions, industries and communities.  

 

Our Industrial Strategy and growth mission series focuses on:  

 

  • Cross-sector partnerships to deliver place-based growth  

  • Balanced regulation that enables innovation and competitiveness  

  • Empowering devolved and regional leadership to deliver inclusive growth  

  • Harnessing civil society as partners in social impact investment and mission delivery  

  • Developing the leadership mindset for mission-driven growth
