"The strategy sets out a vision for a truly inclusive economy where every Londoner can fulfil their potential, play their part in driving growth and reap the rewards of a thriving economy. To support the delivery of this work, the Mayor has announced he is investing £147.2m to kickstart a skills revolution in London. This funding will transform the system to make skills the engine of growth and opportunity in London - helping to unlock at least 150,000 high quality jobs."
"The Inclusive Talent Strategy will, for the first time, put employers at the heart of the skills system, creating a direct link between the skills businesses need to grow and the opportunities for Londoners to learn them. Currently, businesses struggle to find staff with the skills they need, due to a chronic skills mismatch holding the capital's economy back - more than 45,000 job vacancies were hard to fill due to skills shortages in 2024."
