There is no city on earth outside of Wales with such a longstanding, influential, and thriving Welsh community as London.
Alongside the well known religious, academic, and sporting footprints, there is a vibrant community built around government, the professions, culture, and business. Each year, around St David's Day, Wales Week London acts as a focal point to platform talent, make connections, and build up Wales's soft power as the biggest event in a global network of Wales Week centres.
Joining us to discuss the soft power of the London Welsh, the potential for Welsh businesses, and the perceived problem of 'brain drain' the union's capital city, are:
