Business and Economy

We're working to make London the best city in the world for businesses and Londoners, creating a fairer, more inclusive and prosperous economy for all.

London benefits from great economic strengths - it is a leading global city, a hub of entrepreneurship and innovation. With our vibrant cultural life, openness, tolerance and diversity, we are able to attract talent and investment from across the world.

Now more than ever, it's vital to showcase our capital as the best place to work, live, visit, and invest. Through the London Growth Plan, we're strengthening London's global position while building a fairer, more inclusive London for everyone.
