Alongside India’s bid for the 2030 Commonwealth Games and the 2036 Olympic Games, Manchester’s new partnership with India led with a delegation visit at the end of July, taking place in the same week as the new UK-India free trade deal announcement.
I was delighted to offer a keynote on the recent creative legacies of the Olympic Games, focusing on innovation. It was a fantastic week of insight to how India is developing and I’m very optimistic for its chances!
