This week, Downtown in Business hosted its first event of 2023. We were delighted to be joined by Head of Corporate Affairs at Manchester Airport, Andrew Clarke, for an exclusive roundtable lunch at Piccolino Caffe Grande, Manchester City Centre.
Chaired by Downtown Managing Director Chris McKenna, Andrew discussed the difficulties that the airport experienced last year and how the airport has overcome these issues, as well as giving an honest assessment of the upcoming challenges that the aviation industry will face over the next twelve months.
Furthermore, Andrew gave delegates an update on the airport’s plans for 2023 and progress on their 2038 net zero plan.
DIB Sales Director David Matthews commented, “This was a great event to start 2023. Given that the aviation industry has had an extremely challenging few years, it is important that we encourage open discussions and collaboration between the airport and businesses from across the region. It is great to hear the long term plan that the airport has and how it will help boost the economy of not only Manchester, but the North West region as a whole.”
