Leaders Lunch with Angela Barnicle
Downtown in Business Leeds is back with another event in our much-loved Leaders Lunch series. On Wednesday the 9th October we will be joined by Angela Barnicle, Chief Officer for Asset Management and Regeneration at Leeds City Council.
Topic:
The evolution of the Leeds City Region looking to the future and opportunities for growth and regeneration.
Over recent years, the Leeds City region has faced some significant challenges but is now looking towards the future and opportunities for growth. For example, the Asset Management & Regeneration team, of which Angela is Chief Officer, is currently engaged in a number of Place Programmes across the Leeds City Region including the delivery of the East Leeds Orbital Extension, which will release an additional 5,000 homes for the City.
As Chief Officer, Angela is playing a key role in implementing many of these projects and overseeing transformation of the city, for example the ongoing redevelopment of the South Bank including the delivery of British Library North and the Leeds Innovation District.
Her experience makes her an ideal authority to speak on how we best manage and make the most of assets and investment to promote regeneration.
