About International Business Wales (IBW):

The Welsh Assembly Government is a democratically elected body, which was established in May 1999. It has devolved powers and responsibilities for developing and implementing policies in Wales on a broad range of issues, including economic development, education, the environment, agriculture, housing, roads and transport.

The Welsh Assembly works closely with the UK Parliament in developing primary legislation and has powers to introduce secondary legislation of its own.

International Business Wales (IBW) is the Welsh Assembly Government's international trade and investment arm. It forms part of the Department for the Economy and Transport, and acts as the driving force in establishing alliances between companies in Wales and their counterparts overseas, whilst actively seeking out inward investment opportunities for client companies looking to Europe and the UK as a preferred international business location.

Wales has a long and distinguished history of trading internationally, but since the decline of the heavy industries over the past 30 years, status in the international trading arena has diminished considerably. In comparison with other regions of the UK, Wales' performance is poor, both in terms of the overall value of exports and, perhaps more significantly, on a per capita basis.

The Welsh Assembly Government recognises that the development of improved international trading performance is key to improving the prosperity of the nation. The development and maintenance of economic strength, will contribute to the wider aims of marketing Wales as a world class business location, and as a destination for tourists.
