Today, the West of England hosts a Live Lab, a day-long event bringing together the region’s champions. The event will question how access to skills and opportunities can be improved so that the West of England can fulfil its potential. 

Imagine if, in the West of England:

all school leavers and young people find opportunity here first

businesses help shape the subjects in schools

future industries create the jobs for growth and for sustainability

About the Vibrant Economy campaign

In March 2016, Grant Thornton revealed that the nation’s untapped business potential could add £479bn to the UK economy by 2025. Grant Thornton has launched an 18-month programme of activity to create a nationwide conversation about how we can drive a more vibrant economy to help bridge this potential gap, which includes a series of city inquiries across the UK.
