  • Northern Powerhouse Factsheet Key Figures on the City Regions in the Northern Powerhouse June 2015
    Northern Powerhouse factsheet Key figures on the city regions in the Northern Powerhouse June 2015 Introduction The idea of a ‘Northern Powerhouse’ was first introduced in June 2014 by the Chancellor of the Exchequer, George Osborne, in a speech in Manchester. He made the case that the lack of economic and physical connections between the cities and city regions of the North of England was holding back their growth, with significant implications for the national economy. In the Chancellor’s own words: “the whole is less than the sum of its parts…so the powerhouse of London dominates more and more.” For Osborne, the solution to this challenge is the creation of a Northern Powerhouse – “not one city, but a collection of northern cities - sufficiently close to each other that combined they can take on the world.” Since the Chancellor’s initial speech, a raft of interventions have been announced to help turn the rhetoric of a Northern Powerhouse into reality – including the Greater Manchester Devolution Deal, Transport for the North, and the Northern Transport Strategy. With the creation of a Northern Powerhouse set to be a key priority for the new Government, this briefing sets out the current economic profile of the key city regions across the North and compares their performance with that of London and of the UK as a whole. Reflecting the policy pledges contained within the Conservative manifesto, for the purposes of this analysis the Northern Powerhouse is made up of the city regions of Liverpool, Manchester, Leeds, Sheffield, Hull and

  • Research Leeds City Region Knowledge Economy
    1 Leeds City Region Knowledge Economy Introduction The UK’s knowledge economy is critical to our competitive position on the global stage. We have a strong record of outperformance, despite comparatively lower levels of both public and private R&D and innovation support investment than many of our competitors. The post-Brexit environment will present challenges to the UK’s economic development and our knowledge economy capabilities are a crucial aspect that need to be maximised to best position the country for the future. The emergence of Leeds City Region as a thriving knowledge economy centre and its exciting potential for further growth are integral to underpinning the UK’s position as a world leader in knowledge based activity. The Leeds City Region economy is the largest in England outside London and worth £62.5 billion, accounting for 5% of the UK’s economic output. It has historically been an industrial region but today has one of the most diverse economies of the UK and has developed a particularly strong presence in various knowledge economy sectors. This growth has been fuelled by educational excellence, with the highest number of academic institutions outside of London and excellent graduate retention levels. There are a range of initiatives underway that will see extensive investment in Leeds City Region and drive its future growth. These include wider national and regional projects like the Northern Hub and HS2 which will dramatically improve connectivity, along with more specific schemes like the Local Growth Deal, which has already seen over £1bn of investment. This report is a continuation on our series looking at the role of the knowledge economy in the regions.
