Will the Minister provide an update on the progress made to secure business investment to Wales?

Answered by Minister for Economy | Answered on 19/05/2023

As part of the Economic Mission and International Strategy, the Welsh Government, supported by key partners, is actively promoting Wales internationally as a location for investment.

In addition to working with existing investors, we are  promoting those areas of the economy where Wales has  world class capabilities (including cyber, compound semiconductors, fintech, life sciences and renewable energy).  

As stated  in WQ87923, the inward investment statistics for 2022-23 will be published later this year in line with the publication date set by the UK Government’s Department for Business and Trade.
