Welcome from the Chair 

The Eastern Powerhouse is a dynamic, business-led, independent organisation which makes a strategic argument for investment in the East of England. We are promoting the East as a world-leader of innovation in green energy, technology and life sciences. We support sustainable business growth that leads to better opportunities for people across the East.

The East has long been the forgotten corner of the United Kingdom, but we are speaking for the whole of the region, calling for investment into health, education, and infrastructure, and showing government that funding here will gain significant return, not achievable elsewhere. Our businesses are already world leaders, and the East of England is now ready to unlock the potential it has shown over the last 40 years.
