London must invest in creating the workforce of the future, driving a reskilling and upskilling revolution, leveraging our world-leading universities and education system, and continue to attract the talent it needs from overseas. Celebrating diversity and supporting the next generation of leaders are critical to success.
Our work to date has focused on:
- Our new Skilling London workshop series with Lloyds Banking Group brings senior leaders together to address London’s skills gaps. Find out more about this series of events
- We have brought together a coalition of business and education bodies to campaign for a fair and managed immigration system which keeps the UK at #FullStrength, open to workers at all levels.
- Our Skills Commission has developed an Action Plan to provide the skills business needs now and in the future. This means government, business and skills providers pulling together in a coordinated approach.
- Skills London, the UK’s biggest jobs and careers event for young people, is one example of what collaboration looks like when it’s working well.
