Gareth Davies CB, Permanent Secretary, Department for Business and Trade

Harnessing the potential of high-growth business

A thriving economy requires thriving businesses. That means ensuring that high-growth potential firms are operating in an environment in which they can achieve that potential – creating the jobs and value that will underpin a competitive UK. From access to finance and skills, to reducing barriers to entry and regulatory burdens, the Government is committed to creating the conditions for growth, as laid out in the UK’s Modern Industrial Strategy.  

Re:State is delighted to welcome Gareth Davies CB, Permanent Secretary, Department for Business and Trade to explore what the Industrial Strategy looks like in practice, in order to ensure that Britain’s highest potential business can flourish.

This private dinner will be held in-person and will take place under the Chatham House rule and is kindly supported by Workday.
