Wildanet CEO Helen Wylde has been appointed to a national business body launched by the British Chambers of Commerce to work with government and politicians to drive the future of the economy.
The inaugural meeting of the new Business Council took place on 14th September, bringing together British businesses, alongside Cabinet Minister, the Rt Hon Michael Gove and Shadow Chancellor, the Rt Hon Rachel Reeves.
Its initial recommendations will feed into a Business Manifesto in the New Year that will aim to influence political party manifestos ahead of the General Election. The Council will then work to develop follow-up papers.
The Business Council will focus on five key challenges: People and Work, Digital Revolution, Green Innovation, Global Britain and Local Economy of the Future
Wylde is expected to play a key role in the Digital Revolution theme of the Council’s work.
She said: “The insight and experience of values-led businesses such as ours and from regions like Cornwall, Devon and the wider south west should be part of any national conversation around inclusive, sustainable growth.”
