A Global City

Can a global city survive in an age of deglobalisation, or does its fluid, amorphous nature make it resilient to the threats on the horizon? How do we protect the delicate ecosystems of talent, trade, and the rule of law that keep the Square Mile thriving? In this inaugural episode of A City That Works - the brand-new podcast from The Finsbury Institute at City St George's, University of London - host Diana Beech is joined by Professor Michael Mainelli (Emeritus Professor of Commerce at Gresham College and former Lord Mayor of London) and Professor Sir Anthony Finkelstein (President of City St George’s). Aiming to bring research, policy, and practice together to ensure the City of London continues to thrive, they challenge traditional definitions of the City of London, moving beyond geographic boundaries to explore the complex networks, systems, and global connections that define a modern powerhouse. From the strategic role of universities as engines of global connectivity to the unexpected cultural indicators of a thriving tech hub, this episode provides a rigorous, cross-sector roadmap for ensuring the City of London remains competitive, safe, fair, and vibrant for all those who live, work, invest, and trade in it.
