Mayors always prize sustained economic growth but achieving and maintaining it is challenging. Economic success can destroy itself through congestion, high housing costs and unsustainable levels of inequality. How can successful cities maintain momentum and achieve inclusivity? We seek answers to these questions from both sides of the Atlantic Ocean in a discussion with Alan Harding, the Chief Economic Adviser to the Mayor of metropolitan Manchester, UK and Midori Morikawa, Director of Business Strategy from the City of Boston. Lunch provided. |
