The Committee considered a report of the Director of Economic Development concerning the quarterly Economic Development Activities update (October-December 2017).

The Director of Economic Development highlighted that transition went beyond the EU and Brexit, linking the City with future markets where it can make the biggest impact. He also noted that the Commonwealth Business Forum, held in Guildhall and Mansion House, was a key way to showcase the City as a centre of finance in the wider Commonwealth.

RESOLVED – that the report be noted.
