Late last year, Roger Marsh Chair of the Leeds City Region Enterprise Partnership and NP11, launched a report commissioned by KPMG that highlighted a £2bn economic opportunity with the potential for 100,000 jobs and a stated target of halving carbon emissions by 2032.

The clean growth agenda is a huge opportunity for the public sector across the Northern Powerhouse, to lead the way nationally developing new technology, driven by innovation that becomes best practice not just for the UK but as a global export. Who better to create something new and export it across the world than the industrialised North? We’ve done it before so it’s time to do it again.
