Development Bank of Wales

"Our mission is to drive meaningful change by enabling teams to collaborate and innovate through technology. Having partnered with Microsoft for over two decades, we have a deep understanding of how workplace technology can transform organisations, but we recognise that true digital transformation is as much about people and culture as it is about technology."

"We were keen to work on a new build, but it was difficult for us to find a lender that would support us."

"I love food and I love this beautiful corner of Wales so the opportunity to open my own deli, café and bakery in Southgate is a dream come true. However, starting a hospitality business from scratch can be expensive so we needed funding to make it happen. The support from the Development Bank has made all the difference as I couldn’t have done it without them."

"Current carbon fibre material formats are expensive, hard to form into shape and highly wasteful with poor recycling routes. It is more expensive than aluminium and has a much higher footprint CO2e than steel, yet more than 90% end up in landfill."

"We’ve grown over the years because we’ve always taken a long-term view of our business, and we’ve always tried to be sustainable. Not just because it’s good for the environment, but also because it can cut costs and allow us to pass those savings on to our customers."
