Watch the video: are we serious about growth?

In his first major speech of 2022, CBI Director General Tony Danker will argue that we have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to fix our record of weak growth and flatlining productivity - to become a world leader in green energy, a hotbed for technological innovation, and a global trading superpower. The alternative is economic stagnation, low aspiration, and the UK trailing behind our global competitors.

Tony will be joined by Robert Colvile of the Centre for Policy Studies think tank. Together, they’ll discuss what government should do to put the UK back on a high-growth path and the invaluable role that business can play in realising our growth ambitions.
