We’ve unlocked the potential for businesses and entrepreneurs in Greater Manchester and beyond, by helping them to seize opportunities and navigate the challenges of the last decade.
And we’ve supported these ambitious businesses by bringing together the very best of the public and private sectors, including a vast network of local authorities and partners.
