About this event

What is really holding back UK productivity? The challenge is well documented. Decades of underinvestment in key growth drivers – from skills to infrastructure – have left UK productivity lagging international peers.  But is this the full story? 

Join Simon French, Anna Valero, Phil Aldrick and Raoul Ruparel OBE for a focused discussion on the UK’s productivity performance.

Drawing on forthcoming Boston Consulting Group (BCG) research, the panel will examine sector- and firm-level international comparisons and the implications for policymakers and business leaders shaping the UK’s economic strategy. 


Participants are expected to adhere to the Events Code of Conduct.


This event will take place Off Campus.
