<p>The objective of Government’s Industrial Strategy is to increase productivity and
drive growth across the United Kingdom. We have provided a framework to build on the
strengths of different places and address the factors that hold others back. This
will include investing in key infrastructure projects, increasing skill levels, and
backing local innovation strengths.</p><p>The Industrial Strategy will build on the
£12 billion Local Growth Fund (2015-16 to 2020-21) for local areas; 8 Devolution Deals;
and 48 Enterprise Zones that will unlock £2.7 billion of private sector investment.
We have also agreed ambitious city deals in Scotland and Wales and we will work towards
further such deals across the Devolved Administrations.</p>
