The Labour government has announced a record-breaking £150 billion of inward investment commitments from US companies – the largest commercial package ever secured during a State Visit.
The announcement came as part of the US President’s official trip to the UK this week and is set to create more than 7,600 high-quality jobs in clean energy, life sciences and advanced manufacturing. Notably, Belfast will benefit from 1,000 new jobs, signalling Labour’s determination to deliver prosperity across all nations of the UK.
The deal underscores the strength of the UK-US economic partnership and is a major step forward in delivering on Labour’s Plan for Change, accelerating growth in the industries of the future.
