Midlands Engine roundtable report – building back a stronger, better and greener Midlands
In conjunction with the Midlands Engine, we have produced a report which aims to throw light on the issues surrounding the Midlands, the beating heart of the UK economy with 80% of all UK freight passing through the region each year.
23 September 2020
In conjunction with the Midlands Engine, we connected leading businesses at a roundtable event to discuss the issues surrounding the Midlands, and how we can best kick start a green, economic and strong recovery.
Green recovery means more than clean tech. It’s more diverse than energy solutions - broader in spectrum than decarbonisation. Green recovery means designing in sustainable growth, putting in place truly enabling policies which safeguard resources and grow, not diminish, opportunities for today’s and tomorrow’s communities.
Committing to Green Recovery means taking active steps now to deliver sustainable growth. It will unleash the potential of powerful partnerships already in place in the Midlands Engine, across the fields of cutting-edge research, technology development, sector leadership and business innovation - capitalising on proven Midlands Engine strengths which impact at a national level.
