The new regional economic strategy (RES) was launched in September 2008.  Inventing our future: collective action for a sustainable economy it sets out the vision for the future of the region to 2031.  The vision is that by 2031 the East of England will be:
  1. internationally competitive with a global reputation for innovation and business growth
  2. a region that harnesses and develops the talents and creativity of all
  3. at the forefront of the low-carbon and resource-efficient economy
To achieve this the strategy sets out bold targets for increasing productivity, skills levels, employment and resource efficiency while reducing inequalities and greenhouse gas emissions.
