Newport’s
determined drive to ‘re-invent’ itself isn’t only attracting
an influx of external investors, intent on transforming the
urban landscape. The enterprising spirit of the city’s £600m
regeneration programme is also doing much to fuel the growth
ambitions of leading companies already established there.
