Northern Powerhouse minister to speak at high profile event

Northern Powerhouse minister Jake Berry will be the guest speaker at a high-profile event being held in Manchester next month.

The Conservative MP for Rossendale and Darwen will be addressing an audience of business leaders and decision makers at the offices of law firm Squire Patton Boggs in Spinningfields on Friday, October 12th.

The event is the culmination of a six-month project between Squire Patton Boggs, TheBusinessDesk.com and KPMG.

The State of the Region project has taken an in-depth look at the economic strengths and opportunities in the North West over the last six months.

As well as carrying analysis the campaign has included interviews, comment and coverage of discussion panels.

During the course of the campaign we have been taking an in-depth look at a number of different sectors and the opportunities that exist in the key sectors including real estate, financial services, manufacturing, retail and technology.
