'Wales has created an increasingly complicated economic-development system' (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Every now and again, a statistic makes you see a familiar problem differently, and I had one of those moments earlier this month after reading an excellent American article entitled Most of America is a Small Town. Its author had examined population data for nearly 20,000 incorporated places in the United States and discovered that the median community has just 1,153 residents. Three-quarters have populations below 5,000, and almost half have fewer than 1,000; the argument wasn’t that America’s
Manchester can teach Cardiff something about innovation (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Economic development often assumes that naming something is the same as creating it, and we've often seen buildings become innovation centres, loose collections of organisations described as ecosystems, and, increasingly, any cluster of offices, laboratories, and public-sector institutions described as an innovation district. But a genuine innovation district is far more demanding, as it is not simply a place where research happens, nor an incubator surrounded by apartments and coffee shops. It

'WRU needs to publish evidence for decision to cut a region' (opens the original)
Read excerpt
No one disputes that Welsh rugby faces some extraordinarily difficult choices over the next few years, and maintaining the status quo simply because change is difficult is not a credible strategy. But accepting that change is necessary is very different from accepting that every proposed change is necessarily the right one, and nowhere is that distinction more important than in the decision by the Welsh Rugby Union (WRU) that the long-term future of the professional game should involve reducing
Wales has failed to create a system capable of nurturing and developing talent (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The story of James Dacombe should be compulsory reading for everyone involved in economic development in Wales. James left sixth form after only a few days, taught himself to code and established his first technology business while still a teenager. Now aged just 25, he is the founder of Olix, a British company developing specialist computer chips to make artificial intelligence faster, cheaper and more energy efficient. Founded in 2024, the company has reportedly raised more than £200m at a val
