The government recognises that the Midlands has a huge economic potential and could be a key engine for growth. This means improving connectivity, developing the skills and labour markets, and enhancing quality of life. Developing the infrastructure to support this strategy requires significant capital investment, which isn’t readily available from the public purse.

This event will discuss the priorities of the public sector and how the private sector can support the Midlands Engine, in particular in the structuring and funding of key projects. It will explore potential issues on both sides of the table and ways of building confidence on both sides so as to successfully bridge the investment gap.
