The Midlands has a proud history of innovating to solve challenges and through generations of ingenuity we have forged a position at the centre of UK industry – exporting our expertise in manufacturing, health and life sciences, academia, digital and more to a global network of trading partners.
As we look to recover from the pandemic, mitigate the impacts of the cost-of-living crisis, and address historic regional disparities and level up for good – the Midlands Engine partners stand committed to continue to work with industry, government and local parliamentarians to highlight the vast growth potential of our region across these areas of expertise.
