London is also widely seen one of the foremost global cities in which to do business and ensuring that it maintains and build on this position is something we all have a large stake in maintaining.
"I am delighted that Sir Martin agreed to set up and Chair the first meeting of this extraordinary group of international business leaders and equally delighted that they wanted to be part of the process for making our city even better.
