Good growth: What, where, how?

This event hosted by UK think tank Centre for Cities explores their new research on good growth, due to be published ahead of the event.

The Prime Minister has committed to delivering “good growth in every postcode”. The UK Government’s conception of good growth combines stronger economic performance in every part of the country alongside wider social progress. It includes more investment and jobs, improved living standards and greater access to opportunity across the country.

Centre for Cities shares the Government’s view that places have a vital role to play in national economic policy. What good growth means in practice, though, must be informed by the realities of economic geography.

Part of Centre for Cities’ event series ahead of the Devolution White Paper, this discussion will explore new Centre for Cities research on good growth, due to be published ahead of the event, looking at what good growth is, and where it must be generated.
