A private sector-led partnership looks set to support local authorities on the Humber to maximise the “great potential”.
Michael Gove’s Levelling Up White Paper appears to underline the importance of the Energy Estuary as an economic entity, ring-fencing key elements of the disbanded Humber Local Enterprise Partnership’s position.
It will be chaired by consumer healthcare brand Reckitt's chief executive Laxman Narasimhan, with the name Opportunity Humber. It was a business founded by a man who crossed the Humber to start up in Hull from Lincolnshire, and comes after freeport success and major strides have been made with the Net Zero agenda.
