About this project
The City of London Economic Development Strategy will be a comprehensive roadmap, guiding how London grows, invests, and thrives now and into the future.
This strategy will:
Foster job creation and innovation
Attract sustainable investment
Align with the City's strategic priorities while supporting sustainable growth and inclusive, community-wide prosperity
Why is now the right time?
As the global economy continues to evolve, London must be proactive in responding to new opportunities for growth. This strategy will help London build on its strengths, such as advanced manufacturing, technological innovation, health sciences, and our talented workforce, to ensure we remain competitive, resilient, and inclusive.
Where are we now?
We are currently in the Research and Analysis phase, conducting research and preparing background materials to inform our engagement strategy. We will seek insights from business leaders, small businesses, post-secondary institutions, nonprofits, workforce agencies, and others, with a deliberate focus on fostering inclusive engagement and equity in the voices that help shape London's economic direction.
Completed so far:
Project launched
Project team and Economic Advisory Panel Assembled
Research and analysis underway
What's next?
Key partner and sector-specific engagement sessions (Fall 2025)
Stay Informed
We're committed to transparency and ongoing communication throughout this process. Check this page frequently for updates.
