Will the Cabinet Secretary clarify whether the life sciences sector is included in the Ynys Môn freeport?
The Ynys Mon Freeport is working in collaboration with local and national stakeholders to attract investment to help the regeneration of key sites and create high quality jobs. The Freeport’s business case is primarily focussed on key target sectors and associated opportunities around green energy and nuclear, technology, and logistics.
The Welsh life sciences industry is one of our growth sectors and we continue to invest in the sector, including through export and innovation support. Life sciences is a high performing sector in Wales with over 280 companies across all disciplines and established clusters of excellence in medtech, genomics and precision medicine.
