Bringing academic events to Wales is a powerful way to showcase our region’s research strengths, cultural richness, and collaborative spirit. As a member of the Ambassador Wales | Llysgennad Cymru Network, I’m proud to help position Cardiff and Wales more broadly as a vibrant hub for international conferences. Hosting such events not only strengthens our global academic networks but also brings real economic and reputational benefits to the region. It’s a unique opportunity to champion Welsh innovation and expertise on a global stage, while creating lasting connections that benefit our universities, industries, and communities alike."
