Liverpool City Region



Background

The Liverpool City Region LEP is a private sector led Board with political leaders representing the six local authority areas of Halton, Knowsley, Liverpool, Sefton, St Helens and Wirral.

By bringing together local entrepreneurs and politicians we have been able to harness the skills and experience of a wide range of people who understand what it takes to establish businesses and make them successful and therefore sustainable.

The LEP's core activities include:

Strategic Economic Development – contributing to the development of spatial planning, housing, transport, infrastructure, education and training policies.  We are the main economic development interface with Government;  
Business Growth – assisting existing businesses to grow and increase productivity, promoting entrepreneurship and innovation, and advising and assisting businesses regarding available funds and additional indigenous investment; 
Key Growth Sectors – supporting the development of key growth sectors:

  • Knowledge Economy
  • Visitor Economy
  • Low Carbon
  • SuperPort

Detailed Action Plans into each of the key sectors are available. A further ten additional actions to support these step changes have also been agreed. They include:

  • Business Support
  • Innovation
  • Entrepreneurship
  • Marketing
  • Inward Investment
  • Lobbying & Communications
