Alun Cairns said:
I am delighted to have the honour of officially opening Indigo-Belcom’s new Global Support Centre. The company’s continued investment in its Welsh operation highlights not only the global company’s confidence in the Welsh and UK economy but also demonstrates the company’s commitment to its skilled workforce.
The UK Government is working hard to support the growth of a world-leading cluster of hi-tech expertise in Wales. The removal of the tolls on the Severn Crossings later this year is a prime example of that effort.
Indigo-Belcom is exactly the type of business that the South Wales economy needs to create jobs, drive productivity and deliver prosperity for years to come.
