  • Drive innovation and boosting productivity to make all business sectors resilient and sustainable, with a particular emphasis upon growth opportunities in health/life sciences, and clean growth sectors.
  • Make Liverpool a leading business and investment location, and developing commercial partnerships with ethical investors and businesses that share our commitment to inclusive growth.
  • Attract and growing businesses, including community and social enterprises, providing and enabling business support, and working with employers to promote fair employment and sustainable, purpose-driven business practices.
