Sector

The Welsh Assembly Government has identified several key business sectors that are crucial to the nation’s future economic success. These are sectors in which Wales already has a significant track record and strong potential for growth.

 

Our aim is to ensure we nurture businesses in these sectors with a wide range of support to maximise their prospects for market success.

 

This covers support through sector development strategies, where interventions include:

 

  • ensuring a ready supply of specific skills by working with relevant Sector Skills Councils;
  • encouraging the continued development of strong supply chains;
  • promoting collaboration within, and between, different sectors;
  • assisting the evolution of supportive fora;
  • aiding the development of academic support networks; and
  • helping boost the visibility of key sectors in export markets.
