Mr Rotheram said: "The past few years have been challenging for everyone but, thanks to the work of local leaders, our region’s recovery is already well underway.
"We go to MIPM with a fantastic story to tell and a glut of exciting and transformative projects that are ripe for investment.
"The Liverpool City Region has limitless potential in a whole range of sectors, from advanced manufacturing to hydrogen and tidal power. We’ll be working to attract as much investment as possible to our region.
"But for that investment to mean anything, local people and communities have to really feel its benefits. That means creating well paid, highly skilled jobs, apprenticeships and training opportunities, and helping to transform communities that have been left behind."
Stephen Cowperthwaite, chair of the Liverpool Place Partnership and regional MD for Avison Young in Liverpool, added: "After a couple of years away from MIPIM, we are looking forward to once again be reigniting some of the connections and conversations that will bring more international interest to our great city.
"Since we were last in Cannes, through a host of webinars, meetings and roundtables we have been working hard as a partnership to ensure that our investment message isn’t purely centred around MIPIM.
"However, it is an important event in the business and property calendar as it provides us with the international reach to secure further future investment.
"Liverpool City Region is already well established as a visitor destination and we will be championing how the region is also a great place to invest, for both investors and occupiers.
"The Future Impact Board is a statement of our commitment to the future, making sure that younger voices are heard on the world stage, and it has been important to involve them in our planning for this year’s presence."
