This year we will be joined by Andy Burnham, the Mayor of Greater Manchester. Andy is one of the most influential figures in UK politics today, and a champion of the positive impact that local business can have on regional and national prosperity. Hear about his take on the key role of Hospitality in our economy, as well as the challenges, wins and opportunities he has experienced in his role as Mayor.
