Over the summer we brought over 100 business leaders and policy makers from across the UK together to debate how to tackle the unemployment crisis we find ourselves in as well as how we equip our workforce with the skills to withstand the challenges of AI and Brexit.

Join us for our virtual ‘Westminster’ webinar at 10am on 2 November where we will be launching a report which presents the findings to an audience of national and regional policy makers, educationalists, journalists and employers.

One-size-does-not-fit-all, each region has its own unique challenges and every area was unanimous in voicing that they need greater devolution to enable them to tackle the issues they face more effectively. We have captured this thinking and distilled it into one must read report.

With millions expected to join the unemployment lines over the coming months and years due to Covid-19 and millions more needing to retrain over the next decade because of the impact of Artificial Intelligence on the modern workplace – it has never been more urgent to get this right.
