Your Voice
Your Voice allows your
business and your opinions to help shape your business
community.
Briefing
and Research Reports
Regular policy briefings will keep you informed on matters of
importance both locally and nationally.
Opinion Panels
Our opinion
panels also seek your views on important business issues and topics
and with this feedback we will continue to lobby and influence
government directly as well as through the British Chambers of
Commerce.
Working with
MPs
Providing an effective champion for
businesses is very important. We regularly talk to local
politicians, winning their support so they can fully represent the
business community in the region, at Westminister and in Europe. By
providing this effective link between the private and public sector
we will ensure the interests of business are taken into account
when key strategic decisions are made for the area.
Bristol 2050 is the first project
of its kind in the UK. It will publish a unique
blueprint for the city region's development over the next
40 years, addressing the most significant issues facing our
areas, such as transport, infrastructure, jobs, education and the
environment.
Your Voice will be represented at key strategic, local and
regional partnerships and through the Chamber of Commerce &
Intitiative networks.
