Economic Growth Strategy

The new Economic Growth Strategy is a pivotal document that sets out how we deliver long term, sustainable economic growth and will look to shape the future of the town across the next seven years. It highlights the strategic opportunities and grand challenges Luton will face in the coming years and suggests key action areas to ensure our economy will be productive, inclusive and resilient.

Councillor James Taylor, portfolio holder for Regeneration and Economic Growth , stated “Over the past nine months, we have engaged in extensive collaborative work with a diverse range of stakeholders. This collective effort has been instrumental in building the evidence and shaping the draft strategy, which has now gone out for public consultation.”

The public consultation is your chance to voice your opinion on the key components of the strategy, from the missions and action areas to the grand challenges and strategic opportunities. Between 8 April and 6 May 2025 you have the opportunity to take part in the consultation and also be entered into a prize draw for vouchers worth up to £200.
