The AGP Board
The Aerospace Growth Partnership (AGP) Board provides strategic leadership for the UK aerospace sector. It is a partnership between senior leaders from industry and the UK Government, working together to support growth, competitiveness, and long-term success.
The Board plays a central role in identifying opportunities, addressing barriers to growth, and supporting the creation of high-value, skilled jobs. Its overarching aim is to ensure the UK remains a global leader in aerospace.
What the Board Does
The AGP Board sets the overall direction of the partnership and ensures alignment with the UK’s broader economic and industrial priorities.
Key responsibilities include:
- Defining the AGP’s strategic vision, mission, and priorities
- Approving sector-wide initiatives and major programme changes
- Working with Government to shape policy and delivery
- Ensuring the right structures and resources are in place to deliver objectives
- Providing leadership to strengthen collaboration across the sector
Who’s Involved
The AGP Board brings together senior decision-makers from across the aerospace ecosystem, including industry, government, and key delivery partners.
Members are typically Chief Executives, Managing Directors, or equivalent senior leaders with responsibility for UK operations, ensuring decisions are made with authority and sector-wide impact.
Governance and Leadership
The AGP Board is jointly led by Industry and Government Co-Chairs, who provide strategic direction and ensure alignment between sector priorities and national policy.
They are responsible for guiding Board activity, facilitating effective decision-making, and representing the AGP across industry and government forums.

The UK Government is a core partner in the AGP, working closely with industry to support the sector’s long-term success.
Through this partnership, Government helps to:
- Align AGP activity with national industrial strategy
