Mayor calls for business leaders to help shape North Yorkshire’s economic future

York and North Yorkshire Mayor David Skaith is seeking business leaders to join a new Business Board with the objective of shaping economic growth for the region.

He’s looking for ‘innovative and passionate’ business leaders to sit on the board and advise the Combined Authority on economic strategy and policy decisions. The board will also help the Combined Authority bid for fresh investment and engage with businesses, opinion formers and policy makers to help generate economic growth.

He said: “The business community will play a vital role in ensuring our region has a connected and thriving economy where we are reaching our full potential.

“The creation of the Business Board will enable me to understand and take action to best support businesses and create opportunity for all, across York and North Yorkshire. If you’re passionate about business and passionate about the future for York and North Yorkshire, your voice is important, and I want to hear from you.”
