The South West Wales Corporate Joint Committee (SWWCJC) will unveil its first regional investment prospectus today (20 May) at the UK Real Estate Investment & Infrastructure Forum (UKREiiF) in Leeds.
The prospectus showcases its ambitious vision for attracting sustainable investment across Carmarthenshire, Neath Port Talbot, Pembrokeshire, and Swansea.
It highlights a varied portfolio of strategic opportunities across a range of sectors including clean energy, advanced manufacturing, innovation, tourism, and infrastructure. All are designed to accelerate growth, create high-quality jobs, and support the transition to a net-zero economy.
The prospectus, developed in collaboration with the local authorities, industry partners and regional stakeholders, provides investors with a clear, coordinated view of the region’s strengths, assets, and future potential.
A pipeline of investable projects aligned with SWWCJC’s statutory responsibilities for strategic planning, transport, and economic well-being are also outlined.
The launch of the prospectus was said to be a “significant step” in strengthening regional working, to ensure South West Wales remains competitive and resilient in a rapidly changing economic landscape.
Cllr Rob Stewart, chair of the SWWCJC, said: “This prospectus is a statement of confidence in South West Wales. We are presenting a single, coherent regional offer to investors — one that reflects our shared priorities, our world-class natural assets, and our commitment to sustainable, inclusive growth.
“UKREiiF is one of the country’s leading events for driving investment, regeneration, and infrastructure development, making it the perfect platform to showcase the scale of opportunity in our region. It brings together public and private sector leaders from across the UK and beyond, and we are proud to support the Welsh Government, Ambition North Wales, Cardiff Capital Region, and Growing Mid Wales in showcasing the very best that Wales has to offer.
“Our participation at UKREiiF forms part of a wider programme to strengthen investor engagement and promote South West Wales as a dynamic, future-focused region ready to play a leading role in growing Wales’ and the UK’s economy.”
