The fund, set up by Cardiff Capital Region and supported by local authority delivery teams from Blaenau Gwent, Bridgend, Caerphilly, Merthyr Tydfil, RCT and Torfaen, will support businesses and projects which are able to increase prosperity in the region through projects based on infrastructure, digital connectivity and tourism.
Operating over a five year period, the programme will support businesses that are based in the Region or that wish to relocate for long term, with grants and investments available ranging from £100k to £2m.
