We've Got The Talent. Haven't We?
The North has talent.
The North has businesses.
The North has universities, colleges, funders, combined authorities and employers.
Yet employers still struggle to recruit. Young people still struggle to access opportunities they didn't know existed. Founders still struggle to build the right networks and connections.
At the same time, significant investment continues to flow into employability, entrepreneurship, social mobility and future talent initiatives.
So what's getting in the way?
This wouldn't be a panel. It would be an invite-only roundtable bringing together business leaders, funders, combined authorities, education providers and organisations working directly with future talent.
The objective would be to explore a simple question:
If we've got the talent, the investment and the intent, why do the same challenges keep showing up?
