Joint ACE SME Advisory Council and Midlands Committee

For November our Midlands group will meet the SME Advisory Council to provide members the opportunity to engage across the region to highlight the area’s infrastructure needs.

The group will explore the theme of Midlands Region Transport bringing together cities and the region in advocating for increased infrastructure investment. 

Speaker Sarah Spink, Strategic Partnerships Lead at Midlands Connect will join the group to give members an update on the work of Midlands Connect, and discuss wider connectivity across the East and West Midlands.

Martin Tugwell, Chief Executive at Transport for the North will discuss  with members collaborative areas and opportunities for the regions. 

While the arrival of the first phase of HS2 will ensure that the region is better connected to both London and the North West, there are additional opportunities for more infrastructure investment across the region – notably in housing and transport.

In-person meeting in Birmingham
