Fe wnaeth y dyn busnes lleol, Andrew Diplock ymuno â'r Gweinidog yng Nghanolfan Fusnes Tredomen. Mae Andrew Diplock yn aelod o'r tasglu ac yn Gyfarwyddwr Strategaeth a Llywodraethu gydag Inprova Energy, sydd â'i bencadlys Cymreig yng Nghaerffili. 

 Cyfarfu'r ddau â chynrychiolwyr busnesau lleol a gwasanaethau cynghori, gan gynnwys Siambr Fasnach De Cymru, Biotage GB a Smart Money Cymru, i glywed rhagor am y rhwystrau y mae eu busnesau yn eu hwynebu a’r cyfleoedd sydd ar gael iddynt. 

 Dywedodd Alun Davies: 

 
> “Ers sefydlu'r tasglu, dyma'r cyfle cyntaf dw i wedi ei gael i gwrdd wyneb yn wyneb ag arweinwyr busnes, ac roedd yn braf clywed am eu profiadau o redeg busnesau yn y Cymoedd, a'r hyn yr hoffent ei weld yn digwydd er mwyn helpu eu cwmnïau i ffynnu; dw i wedi dysgu llawer.

 
> “Roedd yn galonogol iawn clywed y fath agweddau cadarnhaol ar faterion sy'n ymwneud â chyfleoedd i wella sgiliau a hyfforddiant. Hefyd, mae’n ymddangos bod yna gyffro ynghlwm â chysylltiadau'r Tasglu gyda'r Dinas\-ranbarthau a sut y gallwn fanteisio ar fentrau newydd megis y system Metro.” 
> 
>  Dywedodd Andrew Diplock, “Mae pob math o fusnesau yn bwysig i'n heconomi, ac roedd yn gyfle gwych heddiw i ni wrando a thrafod yr hyn y gall y tasglu ei wneud i gefnogi busnesau newydd, yn ogystal â helpu busnesau i dyfu yng Nghymoedd y De. Dw i wedi bod yn rhan o'r gymuned fusnes yng Nghaerffili ers bron i 15 mlynedd, ac mae bob amser yn bleser cael cyd\-drafod â phobl fusnes o'r un anian, a chael trafodaeth agored gyda thrawstoriad o sefydliadau yn ardal Caerffili. Diolch i bawb a gymerodd ran yn y drafodaeth gan ei bod wedi creu llawer o syniadau, cyfleoedd ac opsiynau i'r tasglu eu hystyried ymhellach.”

 Mae'r tasglu'n bwriadu adeiladu ar waith sydd wedi'i wneud o'r blaen yn yr ardal, ond mewn ffordd fwy cydlynol sydd wedi'i thargedu i ddiwallu anghenion ein cymunedau yn y Cymoedd. 

 Mae'r tasglu'n cynnal cyfres o gyfarfodydd cyhoeddus yn ystod y misoedd nesaf ar draws Cymoedd y De i geisio cael barn cymunedau lleol am eu blaenoriaethau ar gyfer eu hardaloedd. 

 I gael gwybod mwy neu i gofrestru ar gyfer y cyfarfodydd, ewch i'n tudalen Facebook (dolen allanol).

Joining the Minister at Tredomen Business Centre was local businessman and taskforce member Andrew Diplock, Director of Strategy and Governance at Inprova Energy, whose Welsh headquarters are in Caerphilly.


The pair met representatives from local business and advisory services, including the South Wales Chamber of Commerce, Biotage GB, and Smart Money Cymru, to hear about the barriers, and opportunities facing their businesses.


Alun Davies said:



> “Since establishing the taskforce this is the first time I have had the opportunity to meet directly with business leaders and it was great to hear about their experiences of operating in the valleys and what they would like to see happen to help their companies thrive; I have learned a lot.



> “It was especially encouraging to hear such positivity on issues around skills and training opportunities while there seems to be excitement about the Taskforce’s links with the City Regions and how we can harness the potential of new initiatives such as the Metro system.”
> 
> 
> Andrew Diplock said, “All types of businesses are important to our economy and it was a fantastic opportunity today to listen and discuss what the taskforce can do to support business start\-up and growth in the South Wales Valleys. I’ve been part of the business community in Caerphilly for almost 15 years and it always a pleasure to engage with likeminded businesspeople and have an open discussion with a cross section of organisations from the Caerphilly area. Thank you to all that participated in the discussion as it has provided many ideas, opportunities and solutions for the taskforce to consider further.”


The taskforce aims to build upon work previously undertaken in the area in a more coordinated and targeted way to meet the needs of our valley communities.


The taskforce is holding a series of public meetings in the coming months across the South Wales valleys to seek the views of local communities about their priorities for their local areas.
