The traditional and professional service sector in Cardiff is well-developed considering the banks, the pensions, and the insurance brokers that are successful businesses. However, like in the whole world, the technology businesses are taking over Cardiff and they are growing their range of support. Last year the UK Government agreed on a partnership with Cardiff Capital Region of £1.28 billion to invest in infrastructure through a 20-year investment fund. This will significantly improve the city’s connectivity and physical infrastructure.
