Local Economic Strategy

Economic growth is a top government priority, with a long-term plan to support businesses and create a stronger economy. As part of this, the National Industrial Strategy sets out a 10-year vision to give businesses the confidence and stability they need to invest and grow.

Our local plans are aligned with this national approach.

Our Buckinghamshire Economic Growth Plan supports important sectors where we already have strong foundations and exciting opportunities, such as:

  • advanced manufacturing
  • defence
  • life sciences
  • the creative industries

This plan is shaped by the Buckinghamshire Growth Board and builds on the ambitions set out in the Bucks Strategic Vision for 2050. It’s a practical roadmap to help us grow our local economy in a way that benefits everyone—by:

  • creating good jobs
  • supporting local businesses
  • making Buckinghamshire an even better place to live and work
