Industrial Strategy Roadshow

In partnership with the CBI, we are proud to present the Industrial Strategy Roadshow – a year-long programme designed to help government and business co-deliver a successful industrial strategy that drives growth across every sector, nation, and region of the UK.

Through a series of regional roundtables and panel sessions, we’re bringing together voices from across the country – business leaders, policymakers, and key stakeholders – to explore how collaboration can unlock investment, innovation, and inclusive economic development. While rooted in local conversations, these events are national in ambition, shaping the future of the UK’s industrial landscape.

As the UK’s leading business bank, Lloyds is uniquely positioned to support this mission. With over 1 million business customers and deep expertise across high-growth and foundational sectors, we’re committed to backing British businesses and helping Britain prosper. From net zero initiatives to regional infrastructure, our investments reflect our belief in the power of partnership to transform the economy.
