QUESTION TIME: The contentious notion of the South West powerhouse, Wales’ place in the UK and how to attract inward investors dominated the first Estates Gazette Cardiff Question Time on 4 June.
More than 100 people headed to Cardiff City Hall on 4 June to hear a heated debate on the idea of the Welsh capital forming a powerhouse alongside Newport, Bristol and the Severn Estuary region, in order to counterbalance the northern powerhouse and the growing political weight of Scotland.
The panellists:
Ken Poole – head of economic development, City of Cardiff council and director, Cardiff Business Council
Russell Loveland – portfolio director, Land Securities, on behalf of the St David’s Partnership
Chris Potts – director of planning, Savills
Caroline O’Flaherty – partner, commercial property at Hugh James
Rhodri Talfan Davies – director, BBC Cymru Wales
Chaired by Damian Wild, Editor, Estates Gazette
Cardiff Question Time was held in partnership with Cardiff Business Council, Savills, St David’s Partnership, Hugh James and Conveyancing Risk Solutions.
