Downtown in Business were delighted to bring together members of the DIB network on Monday 23rd March 2026 for an exclusive Leaders Lunch with Mike Emmerich, Founding Director at Metro Dynamics, at the Manchester Deansgate Hotel.
The session provided valuable insight into the key themes emerging from MIPIM, alongside a wider discussion on investment, regeneration and the long term future of UK cities and regions. Mike shared his expert perspective on the evolving economic landscape, sparking a highly engaging and thought provoking conversation among attendees.
Events like this are central to what DIB does best, creating a platform for senior leaders to connect, share insight and discuss the issues that matter most to business and the economy.
We would like to extend our thanks to Starship for sponsoring the lunch, and to all of our members who joined us and contributed to such a valuable discussion.
