IMechE responds to Industrial Strategy Green Paper
Published: 16 October, 2024
Responding to the UK Government’s Green Paper on a new Industrial Strategy, President of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Dr Clive Hickman OBE, said: “The Government’s plan for a new Industrial Strategy is a positive step towards fostering innovation and growth across the UK. However, to truly realise the strategy's potential, it is essential to invest in the development of engineers who will drive the scale-up and deployment of these initiatives nationwide. Aligning skills programs with industry needs will be critical to ensuring we have the right talent to meet future demands."
"The Green Paper rightly states that a successful industrial strategy can only be delivered by working in partnership with all sectors of our economy. Taking a long-term view, with a stable regulatory environment and funding mechanisms, is also essential. We look forward to contributing to the consultation and representing the requirements of mechanical engineers in shaping this important strategy.”
