Greater Manchester is increasingly seen as a first-choice destination for international investors, representing the largest UK city-region economy outside of London and a leading area for Foreign Direct Investment (Greater Manchester Business Board).

The Department for Business and Trade reveals how the thousands of high-value jobs that were created in the city-region in the last year alone continue to level-up the local economy, with recent statistics published in their Inward Investment Results for 2022-2023. 

As more international brands relocate to and expand in Greater Manchester, join us for our first Meliá Business Breakfast of 2024 for the opportunity to learn about how the city-region is competing on a global scale in the realms of business and trade directly from the Mayor of Greater Manchester, Mr. Andy Burnham.

This session is ideal for London-based companies who want to learn about opportunities in the North West region. The Mayor will discuss his visions for Greater Manchester and the UK as a whole, as well as UK-Spain bilateral relations from 2024.

The talk will be followed by a Q&A session, prior to the opportunity to network with other guests over a traditional Spanish breakfast.

This event is hosted by the stunning Meliá White House hotel, Patrons of the Spanish Chamber.
