Shaping the Future Together: The Cardiff Capital Region Invest Partnership Programme
We have officially launched our new Cardiff Capital Region Invest Partnership Programme, and here’s why you should join us.
Business leaders, investors and regional partners gathered at Cardiff Arms Park’s Sir Gareth Edwards Lounge on Wednesday 15th October to mark the official launch of the Cardiff Capital Region (CCR) Invest Partnership Programme. The event brought together key figures from across the public and private sectors to celebrate collaboration, share success stories, and outline a bold new vision for the future of investment in South East Wales.
Our Regional Growth Director, Mike Brough, said, “It was brilliant to see so many faces at yesterday evening’s Invest Partnership Programme launch, with familiar faces mixing with new ones. A huge thank you to everyone who joined us and to Cardiff Rugby for hosting. Our events programme for 2026 is all about demonstrating why South East Wales is the place to invest and the opportunities to be part of that programme are something special. It isn’t a dash for cash, but a chance to build a collaborative partnership where, ultimately, the region benefits. I’m really looking forward to seeing and working with, hopefully a few of you, at our events next year.”
This is just the beginning. As we look ahead to another year of investment, innovation and collaboration, we’re excited to invite businesses to join us through the Cardiff Capital Region Invest Partnership Programme, which is a fantastic opportunity to be part of our region’s journey and share in its success.
The Cardiff Capital Region Invest Partnership Programme gives businesses the chance to be part of our story by establishing strategic, placemaking partner status and helping to promote the region as a landmark destination for capital and foreign direct investment, especially through our key cluster sectors.
Together, we can unlock opportunities for our people and businesses and highlight our strengths in key sectors such as emerging technologies, creative industries and advanced manufacturing.
With different partnership packages available, you can choose the right level of commitment for your business and where you will gain the most effective traction in terms of spotlighting your organisation on a regional, national and international stage.
Our region already attracts global investment, renowned companies, skilled talent and innovation. By partnering with us, you’ll help amplify our message and demonstrate why investors should see CCR as a top destination for growth and capital. This is more than sponsorship, it is a shared mission focused on sustainability, innovation and inclusive growth that benefits communities across the region.
As a CCR Invest Partnership Programme member, you will gain year-round collaboration, visibility and access to major events including Wales Week London, MIPIM, UKREiiF, the Royal Welsh Show and Unleash: Ambition & Growth, each event providing key opportunities to connect with investors and global audiences.
Join us in shaping a greener, fairer and stronger future for South East Wales.
