Over the past decade, Manchester has become the fastest growing part of the UK economy. It’s a leading destination for FDI and benefits from a vibrant and diverse business ecosystem.
Now, the region has a plan to deliver a new decade of ‘good growth’, where no one and no place is left behind. This new economic model aims to get every part of the city-region growing, making sure everyone can contribute to and benefit from continued growth and no one and no place is left behind.
A new innovative approach to public investment and a UK-first Integrated Pipeline of shovel-ready projects with high-growth potential will allow the region to build on a scale and at a pace not seen before this century.
This Integrated Pipeline will focus investment and effort over the next decade, delivering thousands of new homes and jobs as well as new employment spaces and innovation districts.
The pipeline is backed by a £1 billion GM Good Growth Fund which aims to pump prime the pipeline making projects more viable and building investor confidence.
