The Productivity Institute has made great strides in its mission to lay the foundations for an era of sustained and inclusive productivity growth over the past year, with work underway in all of our research portfolios, across our nine Productivity Forums and the Productivity Commission.
We are grateful for the fantastic work and support from all our affiliated researchers, partner institutions, and business leaders, Productivity Forum chairs and members, support staff at our partner institutions, our support team based at Alliance Manchester Business School, and our funder, the Economic and Social Research Council.
This year’s edition provides an overview of TPI’s research activity, with case studies on digital skills supply, Artificial Intelligence, urban and regional economies, and National Productivity Week 2025. It also features updates on the Productivity Puzzles podcast, the Productivity Lab, the Productivity Commission and the work of the Institute in the policy sphere.
