Conservative Party Conferences: 'The skills to succeed in the global market'

Reform held a roundtable at the Conservative Party conference on the skills the country needs to succeed in the global market, led by the Rt Hon Anne Milton MP, Minister of State for Apprenticeships and Skills and Minister for Women.

The event took place under the Chatham House and was held in partnership with NOCN:
