Inclusive Growth Conference 2023

Panel discussion
How can we revitalise UK industry to drive fair growth?

Labour has spoken of ‘rewiring’ the economy to secure the UK’s future, forging a new relationship with business, in which the party’s industrial strategy will be central to its vision for an active, dynamic state that drives growth. Speakers considered:

• What are the opportunities of a genuine and innovative partnership model with business, and what can the UK learn from examples here and abroad?
• How can the UK respond to and compete with the ambitious industrial and investment strategies seen in the US and EU?
• How can the UK finally create institutional stability when it comes to industrial policy, and can local and regional devolution play a part in this?
