Yesterday, we were delighted to welcome representatives from the UK Mayors Group and member firms at our Mayoral roundtable discussion – kindly hosted by @JLLUK and co-chaired by @RainNewtonSmith and @DrHannahWhite.
Our CEO @RainNewtonSmith and Chief Economist, @louisehellem had a productive meeting with the Chancellor of the Exchequer @RachelReevesMP before the #AutumnBudget.
They discussed our key Budget asks, focusing on driving sustainable growth & supporting businesses across the UK.
CBI CEO @RainNewtonSmith today joined Chancellor @RachelReevesMP at @hmtreasury, with our B5 counterparts, to discuss our shared ambition to fire up the UK economy. Businesses are the engine of growth - so continued dialogue will be key to fulfilling our economic potential.
Yesterday our CEO @RainNewtonSmith joined business leaders at an exclusive @10DowningStreet reception to celebrate the partnerships between government & industry. We look forward to continuing our work with the new Government to deliver the growth & investment we need.
Great to hear @RachelReevesMP set out her plan to get Britain building & deliver sustainable growth, as well as catch-up with so many friends & former colleagues at @hmtreasury. See @CBItweets quick take alongside biz leaders below. ⬇️ I can’t believe that was only 3 days ago!
Congratulations to @Keir_Starmer and his government. Delivering sustainable growth should be the defining mission of the new government. We @CBItweets will work in partnership to deliver investment, green growth, and international leadership: https://t.co/Uo95URZDYf
Hear directly from The Rt Hon Kemi Badenoch and Jonathan Reynolds on the issues facing businesses as they take part in a Business Hustings debate - in collaboration with Bloomberg and supported by the B5 organisations.

We’re thrilled to be ranked among the top three economic forecasters for 2023, as per the Sunday Times’/@dsmitheconomics' annual ranking. Big thanks to our economics team for all their hard work, and their salient judgements during challenging economic times!
"...what's been pretty clear is there hasn't been an alternative voice for business."
Thrilled to have PwC back in membership, with today's comments from Kevin Ellis demonstrating their confidence in the work we do at the CBI, on behalf of businesses right across the UK.
We are delighted about @PwC_UK's return to membership and will continue to work to enjoy the confidence and backing of our members & be that unifying voice of British business.
Professional services are critical to the economy and play a huge role in our sustainable growth aims.
The Green Prosperity Plan is core to @UKLabour economic strategy. Today, @RainNewtonSmith and CBI members met with @Ed_Miliband to discuss how it's best implemented to crowd in private investment and place firms at the forefront of buying and selling green technologies in the UK.
Great to hear former PM talk about this. In so many ways, having Type1 diabetes is a very personal thing - to the outside world, nothing looks ‘wrong’ with you. Hearing TM talk about her own challenges shows you don’t let it hold you back. Although, I’ve no plans for No10 (yet)…
"When I did PMQs my blood sugar went up... It shouldn't stop you doing anything - you can be Prime Minister."
Former PM Theresa May tells @JustinOnWeb about 'the good days and bad days' of type 1 diabetes.
