Towards a new wave of local economic activism: the future for economic development strategies

The five minute summary version of our new report - grab a coffee and get the gist. 1/12.

What does the report offer me?

It tells you what local authorities are getting wrong in their economic development strategies. We carry out a simple twenty point test on each strategy. Then we outline a new model for local authorities to adopt when forming their economic strategies in future. Finally, we offer the chance for your local authority to get involved in a ground-breaking pilot scheme.

Quite simply, this report seeks to rewrite the way we do local economics in this country.

So why is this report important now? I've got enough to do as it is!
