Fel rhan o’m trafodaethau gyda Jonathan Taylor, gwahoddais Hyb Cynghori Ewrop ar Fuddsoddi i siarad â ni am ei waith gyda hyrwyddwyr prosiectau o holl sectorau cyhoeddus a phreifat Cymru.  Roeddwn wrth fy modd pan ddywedodd Jonathan y byddai’n derbyn fy ngwahoddiad; ac i’r Hyb heddiw gyflwyno cwmpas ei waith i gynulleidfa frwd o Gymry.  Hwn oedd y digwyddiad cyntaf o’i fath yn y DU a chyda’r cyntaf i gael ei gynnal yn Ewrop.  At hynny, cefnogwyd yr Hyb yn y digwyddiad gan gydweithwyr iddo o Adran Weithredol yr EIB yn ogystal â chan cydweithwyr o’r Comisiwn Ewropeaidd, sy’n gyfrifol am gynnal y diwygiadau strwythurol i wella amodau buddsoddi o dan yr IPE yn yr UE.
As part of my discussions with Jonathan Taylor, I invited the European Investment Advisory Hub to Wales to talk about its mandate directly with project promoters from across the Welsh public and private sectors. I am delighted to say that Jonathan accepted my invitation; and that today the Hub presented the scope of its work to an eager Welsh audience. This was the first event of its kind that the Hub has undertaken in the UK and amongst the first in Europe. Furthermore, the Hub was supported at the event by EIB colleagues from the Bank’s Operational Department, as well as colleagues from the European Commission, which is responsible for implementing structural reforms to improve the EU investment climate under the IPE.
