Business is now dealing with lockdown restrictions being eased and the emergence of a new way of working and operating.
Before the crisis, the economies of the North had been enjoying renewed momentum and focus.
The impact of coronavirus has been unexpected and unprecedented. But it has also caused such disruption that there is an opportunity to think the previously-unthinkable.
Reviving the Northern Powerhouse economy looks at what the pandemic means for the Northern Powerhouse and how the regional and city economies of the North can be rebuilt in the wake of Covid-19.
