Welcome to the Northern Business Podcast, a regular discussion with people who lead businesses, employ people and have new ideas to help our economy grow.
The Northern Business Podcast is produced by Recognition PR, which serves businesses in different sectors across the country, some of which occasionally contribute.
We are sponsored by Vertu Motors plc, one of the top automotive retailers in the UK, with a network of dealerships representing some of the world’s most popular brands.

We're joined by Michelle Percy, chief Executive of Develop North who has more than 30 years of senior leadership including at Newcastle City Council, where she played a leading role in building public-private partnerships and attracting inward investment.
