The letter was published just before Rachel Reeves's first speech of the campaign where she will promise to be both pro-business and pro-worker.
The letter to The Times was signed by figures including television chef Tom Kerridge and Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales."A lack of political stability and the absence of consistent economic strategy have held it back."
Under Sir Keir Starmer, Labour has tried to woo businesses as a way of demonstrating it can be trusted with the economy. Other names attached to the letter include former Heathrow chief executive John Holland-Kaye and JD Sports chairman Andrew Higginson.
