Three members of the @IndStrategyComm - Dame Kate Barker, Craig Berry and Richard Jones - will give evidence in Parliament on Wednesday as part of @CommonsBEIS’s inquiry on #IndustrialStrategy parliament.uk/business/commi…

Last month we published our final report. Watch the video from the launch event and find out more about our recommendations for the new #industrialstrategy youtu.be/8sFunxODSqA

Plans for an independent #IndustrialStrategy watchdog are a step in the right direction. Our call for a statutory Office for Strategic Economic Management would do even more to ensure our future economic success: industrialstrategycommission…

The government’s recognition of Places as a foundation of #IndustrialStrategy is welcome. We believe that #place matters & everywhere in the UK must see some benefit from this new approach: industrialstrategycommission…

Infrastructure has been named as an #IndustrialStrategy foundation in today’s white paper. We have called for a more ambitious vision - a commitment to Universal Basic Infrastructure: industrialstrategycommission…

We are pleased to see ideas & #innovation named as a foundation of UK #IndustrialStrategy in today’s white paper. Our report recommends prioritising the diffusion of innovation across the country: industrialstrategycommission…

The UK should commit to a higher level of infrastructure spending to provide Universal Basic Infrastructure for all citizens in all places. We hope to see announcements in today's Budget that will create Universal Basic Infrastructure across the UK. #Budget2017

The new #industrial strategy must be owned and driven from the top of government but there must also be powers devolved to local, regional and devolved government wherever possible. We're looking out for further and faster devolution announcements in tomorrow's #Budget2017

Our Final Report (bit.ly/2zqcRWi) argues that a new #industrialstrategy must address regional economic imbalance and seek to help all under performing areas. We hope the Chancellor announces measures to tackle regional disparity in tomorrow's #Budget2017

"Whitehall needs a regional industrial strategy' - Michael Heseltine in today's FT: ft.com/content/f5fcb8cc-cddf… (subscription req'd). Our final report calls for Further & Faster #Devolution as a key #IndustrialStrategy objective: industrialstrategycommission…

The Executive Summary and full Final Report of our inquiry into UK #IndustrialStrategy are available here: industrialstrategycommission…

To secure our future security, prosperity & success, the #IndustrialStrategy must be designed to focus on the strategic goals of the state.

When faced with a choice between efficiency & equity, the #IndustrialStrategy should not be afraid to prioritise fairness.

We should develop new appraisal methods, to complement existing analysis with a fuller grasp of real-world impacts. #IndustrialStrategy

The UK is a world-leader in #innovation. #IndustrialStrategy must capitalise on this strength & diffuse innovation throughout the economy.
