IoD Wales Manifesto 2026
We are proud to launch our 2026 Manifesto for Wales, a bold, strategic vision for strengthening Welsh business and leadership in a time of economic change.
Built from extensive engagement with our members, policy ambassadors, branch committees and wider business community across North, Mid, South and South-West Wales, this manifesto reflects the priorities directors have identified as critical for growth, resilience and sustainable success.
Our manifesto sets out practical, evidence-informed recommendations for how Government, business and civic partners can work together to unlock opportunity, drive innovation and ensure Wales thrives at home and on the global stage.
Grounded in collaboration, inclusivity and a long-term perspective, the 2026 Manifesto outlines how Wales can create the conditions for economic prosperity, talent retention, and lasting impact for communities across the nation, whether decisions are taken in the Senedd, Westminster or beyond.
