Wales’ “biggest ever business event” to take place in December

Business event, audience applauding

Wales’ First Minister Eluned Morgan has announced details of the major international investment summit taking place in Wales later this year.

The event will take place on Monday 1 December 2025 at International Convention Centre Wales (ICC Wales) and the Celtic Manor Resort in Newport.

It will focus on promoting Wales as a destination for overseas investors. There are currently around 1,480 overseas-owned companies operating in Wales, employing more than 174,000 workers. 

To coincide with today’s announcement, the US semiconductor design software leader Cadence Design Systems, Inc. has announced plans to open a new design centre in Cardiff, creating more than 100 highly skilled jobs. The Cadence Design Centre, a joint venture with the Welsh Government and the Compound Semiconductor Applications Catapult, will design semiconductor chips, creating a strong pipeline of graduate talent to help address skills shortages in the industry.
