Last chance to secure your free place at the City of Wolverhampton Business Breakfast

The City of Wolverhampton is going through some major changes and is securing investment not seen for generations, with £4.4bn on site or in the pipeline.

The Council, supported by local MPs and the West Midlands Combined Authority, has tabled ambitious Levelling Up bids to the Government totalling £60m.

With bids launched to create a state-of-the-art health and wellbeing hub, a Green Innovation Corridor and a new City Learning Quarter, this is a pivotal moment for the city to build on this momentum and become a city of opportunity.

Join us on the 29th September from 8am-11am alongside more than 300 others at Grand Station to discuss:

  • What levelling up means to the city’s businesses and stakeholders
  • How bids such as the City Learning Quarter, Green Innovation Corridor and Health & Regeneration programme will accelerate growth
  • The opportunities that will be created through the National Centre for Sustainable Construction
  • How the city is investing in its people’s jobs and skills
