David Stringer-Lamarre, MD of FortisCL, within his role as Chair of the Institute of Directors, London Region was pleased to attend this meeting chaired by Rajesh Agrawal, Deputy Mayor for Business.

David said that it was very useful to participate in Tuesday’s discussion looking at the potential effects of the lockdown on businesses in London and feed in information on behalf of members of the Institute of Directors.

A key element is to plan for the ‘unlocking’ in December and as much as possible, given the many challenges, maintain and convey a positive attitude.

Other groups included: British Retail Consortium, CBI (Confederation of British Industry), City of London Corporation, Greater London Authority, London & Partners, London Chamber of Commerce and Industry, London Councils, Mayor of London, techUK and TheCityUK
