Roundtable: Building the Future

Author: Localis, Labour Party Conference - Sep 27, 2011

Localis, in partnership with Lloyds Banking Group, held a roundtable discussion at last year’s Labour party conference in Liverpool at 9.00m on Tuesday 27th September. The discussion, entitled “Building the Future: Funding infrastructure in an age of localism”, explored the issues and challenges around local government’s access to capital funding, and what the future may hold for the financing of infrastructure projects.

This was a private event.
