Value proposition

Liverpool City Region Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP) was created in 2012 to bring together businesses and civic leaders to drive private-sector led growth and job creation.

Following a national review of the work of Local Enterprise Partnerships, the Combined Authority was required by Government to integrate the functions of the LEP into its own governance structure.

At its meeting on 28 April 2023, the Combined Authority approved plans to integrate the work of the LEP, into the Liverpool City Region Combined Authority.
