About us

The Growth and Reform Network is a partnership between The Future Governance Forum and Metro Dynamics working to support local and combined authorities in driving inclusive growth and public service reform.

Our mission is to bridge the gap between national policy and delivery in local and regional places. We bring together mayors, councils and government to develop the innovative ideas, policy and practice that deliver better services, invest in places and drive good growth.

At the heart of this mission is supporting innovation to increase the trend rate of growth, create better jobs and opportunities for people all over the UK, and improve public service outcomes. The Network exists to support devolution to achieve its full potential, with a more preventative and productive model of local growth and public service delivery.
