Cardiff Capital Region is transforming the economy, business landscape and potential for inclusive prosperity across South East Wales.
We’re making a real difference by:
- Nurturing an inclusive economy where no one gets left behind.
- Fostering and inspiring innovation in our businesses, public services and foundational economies.
- Matching our economic ambitions with progressive social policies.
We are a partnership of 10 councils, and we have been working together successfully to improve the lives of our region’s 1.5m residents since 2017.
In April 2024, we became a Corporate Joint Committee, with new responsibilities for regional transport and strategic planning providing the opportunity to do more to benefit our region.
