Steve Rotheram, mayor of Liverpool City Region
Chair: Evelina Grecenko, senior reporter, Estates Gazette
Liverpool City Region arrives at MIPIM 2026 with a record £11bn pipeline and a 10-year mandate to expand the economy by a further £10bn. This is no longer a vision of what could be, it’s a roadmap of what is being built. In this episode, mayor Steve Rotheram details how the region's largest-ever investment fund is fuelling high-growth clusters in life sciences, AI, advanced manufacturing and clean energy.
We’ll explore the emerging Mayoral Development Corporation designed to strip away planning friction and fast-track 17,500 new homes across the city's historic North Docks, as well as the planned £5bn transformation of Liverpool Central Station. Join us as we discover why Liverpool is the UK’s frontline for institutional capital in 2026.
