I was back in the HoP this week for an evidence session for the Manufacturing Commission’s inquiry into the Government’s Industrial Strategy this time concerning ‘Access to Finance’.
The session was chaired by Lord Bilimoria, always a great supporter of UK Manufacturing.
we were very fortunate to be joined by representatives of the British Business Bank who outlined how they will be supporting the Government’s Industrial Strategy and providing investments to finance growth.
We were also joined by EMC Corporate Finance’s Michael Gibbs in what was a lively session exploring many areas that stifle UK Manufacturing in fulfilling its potential.
We covered areas such as raising finance for capital investment (always an issue for manufacturers), accessing grant income, the R&D Tax Credit and working with banks.
