Sponsorship Is a Two-Way Partnership at Cardiff Business Club
When Cardiff Business Club was founded in 1912, coal was still king and Cardiff was at the heart of global industry. Much has changed in the century since, but the Club's mission – to connect businesspeople, exchange ideas, and help shape the economic conversation in Wales – remains as relevant now as it was then. Relevance is a word I keep coming back to. As Chair, it's something I think about a lot. We have a proud history, but that history only matters if we use it as a foundation, not a resting place. I believe strongly that Cardiff Business Club should reflect the Wales we live and work in today and that means being open, outward-looking, and genuinely representative of the business community around us. That commitment to relevance runs through everything we do, from the calibre and diversity of our speakers to the makeup of the room. At our final event of the season in June, the split between men and women attending was roughly 50/50. That might sound unremarkable now, but when I think back to the stories shared in the Club's centenary book – about the resistance, not so long ago, to admitting women as members at all – it's clear just how far we've come. Our programme is also evolving. Last season we hosted roundtables in partnership with the Design Commission for Wales, exploring specific topics like transport in more depth. We co-hosted a major event with the CBI that brought 400 people into the room. And we've continued to welcome a wide range of speakers – from our Club President, Dame Tanni Grey-Thompson to Rupert Soames – who challenge, inspire and engage. This autumn, we'll welcome the Irish Ambassador, a senior military leader and the First Minister of Wales. Each of those events reflects our aim: to be a space where people can hear directly from decision-makers and leaders, and where the business community can have a voice in shaping the future. Of course, none of this happens in isolation. The Club is made stronger through the support of its sponsors, and as we look ahead to the 2025–26 season, I want to encourage more businesses to consider coming on board. Sponsorship isn't just about visibility, though we work hard to ensure our partners receive that. It's about connection. Whether it's through panel events, collaborative roundtables, or podcasts like our own series Capital Conversations, we're creating more ways than ever for our sponsors to engage with the business community and with policymakers. Our partners gain real opportunities to showcase their work and contribute to meaningful conversations. And in return, the Club benefits from fresh perspectives, new networks, and stronger ties across Wales and beyond. We've seen this in action with organisations like Bute Energy and Swansea Building Society, both of whom have taken a lead role in our recent programme. Their involvement has helped shape the Club's direction and, in turn, we've helped shine a light on their work and values. I want to see more businesses benefit in the same way. That's why we're continuing to build bridges. We've hosted events with other organisations, and we're starting to attend them too. In July, for example, we'll take a table at a Swansea Business Club event, strengthening ties across the country. We're also bringing together senior figures from institutions like the Bank of England for small, focused discussions that allow for direct engagement – something many of our sponsors have found particularly valuable. So if you're a business leader thinking about getting involved, my message is simple: now is a good time to act. The new season is shaping up well, with many of our events already confirmed, and there are real opportunities for sponsors to contribute in a way that's visible, meaningful and genuinely rewarding. Getting in touch is easy. Visit the website – – or reach out to me or any member of the board. We'll be happy to start a conversation. Phil Jardine talks about this and more in the Capital Conversations, The Cardiff Business Club Podcast episode Corporate Engagement and Cardiff Business Club. Listen to the podcast here.

Billionaire's urgent warning: Australia is falling dangerously behind and we risk suffering dramatically as a result
Australia has a big opportunity to develop artificial intelligence, but the technology could have major economic ramifications if firms and governments don't adapt, a billionaire entrepreneur has warned. Scott Farquhar, the co-founder of tech giant Atlassian, said Australia was on the edge of a 'great industrial revolution' with AI in a speech to the National Press Club on Wednesday. He said taking advantage of existing AI infrastructure could contribute up to $115 billion per year to Australia's economy by 2030. It comes as the government prepares to host an economic roundtable in August, where development of AI to enhance productivity is on its agenda. 'The scoreboard of the AI era is blank,' Mr Farquhar said. 'The race is still on, and Australia has everything to play for.' Mr Farquhar said the place to kickstart Australia's productivity with AI was in data centres. Data centres are massive facilities that process data from cloud servers, with complex operations serving millions of customers. Mr Farquhar said Australia's strategic location near southeast Asia, as well as having lots of land, could lead the country to become a world leader in AI storage. He called for the government to change copyright laws to give exceptions for text and data mining to boost AI's capacity. The US and Europe have exceptions for text and data mining, which means AI can learn and make informed decisions when tasked to complete an action effectively. 'There's huge opportunities for people that are great at what they do, at creating content to sell in a totally new way,' Mr Farquhar said. Atlassian cut 150 jobs on Wednesday. When asked about the impact of AI taking away jobs, Mr Farquhar said it was inevitable. He compared the arrival of AI to the introduction of electric trains following the era of steam locomotives, noting while people at the time were concerned they would lose jobs, it advanced the country in the long run. Mr Farquhar added big businesses needed to increase its part in contributing to AI's research and development in Australia, with small firms and technology companies leading the way. 'The amount we spend is an early canary into how productive and innovative we are going to be in the next decade or two,' Mr Farquhar said. 'Big businesses in Australia are falling behind their (research and development) investments.' Australian Council of Trade Unions president Michele O'Neil said improving productivity was important, but not at the expense of AI taking jobs.
