Bdaily Inward Investment coverage

The UK has become an increasingly attractive inward investment opportunity in the past decade with investment from foreign firms into the UK's regions even outstripping EU rivals Germany, France and Spain in recent years.

But as the full impact of Brexit is felt will these levels of investment be maintained? And do we need to look more carefully at encouraging investment between different regions of the UK?

Bdaily's dedicated inward investment page in association with Invest North East England brings together all the views and opinion relating to these important questions as well as helping you to stay up to date with the latest inward investment news in your region.
