The Cardiff Ambassadors’ Programme was launched at the SWALEC Stadium, Cardiff on 25 March 2009. Its aim is to provide Business leaders, Academics, sports people and celebrities with the motivation and support needed to help them sell Cardiff to the world as an investment location and a destination of choice for conferences and events.

The Cardiff Ambassadors’ Programme has been developed by Cardiff & Co on behalf of the city. Over 300 Ambassadors have already been appointed and the number will continue to rise as more and more people become aware of the support made available as part of the Programme.

Do you think you have the relevant networks or associations within your work and Business Environment where you could directly generate Business revenue for the city through events, conferences or inward investments? Do you have the scope to raise the profile of Cardiff as a city where individuals can meet, study, live or do business? Are you based outside Cardiff but have an affinity with the city and would like to sing its praises?

If you’ve answered yes to any of these questions, we’d like to give you the support, materials and information you need to raise your own profile and that of Cardiff amongst your peers locally, nationally or on the international stage.

 

If you would like to register as a Cardiff Ambassador and learn more about the Networking events that are organised or wish to receive regular communication/e-newsletters from Cardiff & Co on new developments, venues etc. the please complete either the Academic Ambassador form here or the Business Ambassador form here.
