“Because of its size, it is a great hub to present and test new ideas,” says Elio Assuncao, 

Furthermore, the National Assembly which is based in Cardiff Bay has many incentives and policies designed to help Innovation in Wales. Including Government's  Business Wales which provides many development funds, which can only be accessed by technology companies.

Official figures show that the number of digital businesses in Wales grew by 7% between 2013 and 2014, when compared to other sectors where the growth was only 2.8%. It is important to Wales to help digital innovation as a nation of many techies, as the success in Cardiff will expand and grow to wider regions outside the Capital City, and many Co-working spaces such as TecMarina are helping to drive this success.
