Today’s events:
A private Onward breakfast to discuss the future of the UK’s energy infrastructure and the route to net zero. By Invitation only.
There is an urgent need to accelerate food innovation to improve food security and decrease emissions from the agricultural sector. This panel will look at the future of agriculture in the UK, including the potential market for cultured meat and how the Government can catalyse the growth of the industry.
Stable and secure housing has always been essential. But it is out of reach for many, a fact only exacerbated by the pandemic. How can we use this moment to deliver lasting change to the private rented sector, working with renters and landlords? This event will discuss the future of renting in the context of the return of the Renters’ Reform Bill.
The pandemic represents an opportunity to seriously think about how best to level up left behind communities. This panel will discuss how best to encourage locally-led neighbourhood-level regeneration over the long term, and consider practical solutions to promote better social and economic outcomes for a greater number of people who need it most.
There is significant optimism for the future of life sciences in the UK. The Government increasingly recognises the importance of the industry and has outlined its ambition for the UK to become a science superpower. This event will bring together parliamentarians and industry leaders to discuss the future of life sciences research and development.
The Government has pledged to ‘build back greener’. This panel will consider how best to overcome the obstacles that are holding back a green housing revolution, and discuss incentives to homeowners, the regulatory and financial structures to drive technological development, and the responsibility for decarbonising social housing stock.
Innovation is one of the driving forces behind modern economic growth. In a world where data is increasingly key, the UK has a unique opportunity to leverage digital technologies to transform our competitiveness. This panel will discuss the building blocks of boosting innovation.
And to conclude Onward’s programme at CPC:
Onward annual Conservative Party Conference drink's reception, with Rt Hon Sajid Javid MP. Kindly supported by the CBI. Strictly by invitation only.
