Tees Valley Local Growth Plan Engagement: Foundational Economy

The Tees Valley Combined Authority and our constituent Local Authorities are currently working with key local stakeholders to develop the Tees Valley Local Growth Plan (LGP). The LGP provides a 10-year strategic framework for inclusive regional growth, setting out its economic vision and identifying Tees Valley’s sector strengths.

Work undertaken on the LGP to date has resulted in five High-Level Local Growth Priorities being identified, including the Foundational Economy.

The Combined Authority has appointed a team from Lichfields, a specialist planning and economic development consultancy, to lead a series of engagement events to discuss the range and type of potential interventions that could help unlock the opportunities presented by these Local Growth Priorities.

The engagement events will focus on each Local Growth Priority in turn and give attendees an opportunity to:

• Understand headlines from the evidence base which led to the identification of the relevant Local Growth Priority;

• Discuss the scale of the opportunity presented by the relevant Local Growth Priority and consider what success might look like across Tees Valley as a whole and within different boroughs; and

• Explore ideas on activities that stakeholders believe would have the greatest impact in unlocking Local Growth Priority opportunities.

This is one of a series of events so if you are unable to make this date, please visit out Eventbrite page to reserve your place at another event. Please note places are limited due to venue capacity.
