CN250532 Local Growth Plan Evidence Support

Local Growth Plans are strategic frameworks developed by regional or local authorities to articulate economic ambitions, coordinate investment, and drive forward prosperity at place level. Such plans are a requirement for Mayoral Combined Authorities, providing a blueprint for investment priorities, sectoral development, and collaborative action around innovation, infrastructure, and skills. They will play a pivotal role in aligning local strengths with national policy objectives, shaping the case for government and private investment, and ensuring that localities are positioned to capture emerging economic opportunities. Kent County Council identified a number of candidates who were invited to submit a tender to provide support for the development of the Kent & Medway Local Growth Plan.
