Partnership in Practice: How can the new government work with business to deliver missions?
The new government is pursuing a different approach to governing, what it calls “mission-driven government”. Key to achieving this is a strong partnership with business, because without the resources and expertise of the private sector, it will not be possible to deliver the missions.
Getting the environment for partnership between government and business will require changes on both sides. Businesses need to become more collaborative and think about the wider interests of society. Government will need to be more deliberative in the way that it develops policy and commits to long term plans.
Demos, supported by Headland, will be convening a series of roundtables through our Business Partnership Council. This will bring together government, businesses and other experts to understand how we can put the shared desire for partnership into practice.
This paper is a contribution to begin that conversation and to lay out how mission-driven government can be made reality in partnership with business.
