The Initiative is a
business leadership team that exists to enable the business
community to play a part in influencing the way the West of England
is shaped, managed and developed. It provides an effective link
between the private and public sector to ensure that the interests
of commerce are taken into account when key strategic decisions are
made which will affect the future.
The organisation evolved from the
Bristol Initiative, which was set up in 1988 to provide a focus for
informed debate and to foster a spirit of partnership, particularly
between the private sector and those in local governance. Its
purpose is as relevant today, as it was then - to improve and
enhance the community in which business operates.
