English: On 16 November, I visited Welsh ICE, which is based in Caerphilly business park, and it was recently awarded Welsh Government funding to become a regional enterprise hub to encourage and support entrepreneurship, linking with all kinds of partners from universities, local businesses, colleges and the Development Bank of Wales. They're also linking up with satellites, who are to be confirmed, according to the development plan, and I'd like to hear more about that. If it's going to be successful, Welsh ICE wants to support the Minister's ambition for connectivity, which has already been referred to, and help identify key partners. When I visited Welsh ICE, they showed me an infographic that demonstrated the businesses that were linking in with them. It was interesting that it was a kind of upside-down T shape in the fact that it was businesses from along the M4 corridor and then the Rhymney valley linking into Cardiff and not much outside of that area. So, there's certainly a challenge to get those different communities linking into Welsh ICE. I particularly want to see businesses from Bargoed and Senghenydd linking into Welsh ICE, but also from across those Valleys communities. Overwhelmingly, we see businesses interested in the southern parts; we need to connect the northern Valleys. So, what can the Welsh Government do to encourage this? I notice in his statement that he mentions a focused business support campaign. Can he just elaborate on what he means by that and also what he means by the peer-to-peer network that he referred to in his statement? Some elaboration on those things also would assist Members in understanding how we're going to develop those northern Valleys communities and businesses.
Welsh: Ar 16 Tachwedd, ymwelais â Chanolfan Arloesi Menter Cymru, sydd ym Mharc Busnes Caerffili, y dyfarnwyd arian Llywodraeth Cymru iddi'n ddiweddar er mwyn iddi ddod yn ganolfan fenter ranbarthol i annog a chefnogi entrepreneuriaeth, gan gysylltu â phob math o bartneriaid o'r prifysgolion, busnesau lleol, colegau a Banc Datblygu Cymru. Mae hefyd yn cysylltu â chanolfannau ategol, sydd i'w cadarnhau, yn ôl y cynllun datblygu, ac fe hoffwn i glywed mwy am hynny. Os yw'n mynd i fod yn llwyddiannus, mae angen i Ganolfan Arloesi Menter Cymru gefnogi uchelgais y Gweinidog ar gyfer cysylltedd, y cyfeiriwyd ato eisoes, a helpu i adnabod partneriaid allweddol. Pan ymwelais â Chanolfan Arloesi Menter Cymru, fe wnaethon nhw ddangos ffeithlun imi a oedd yn dangos y busnesau a oedd yn cysylltu â nhw. Roedd yn ddiddorol ei fod yn fath o siâp T ar ei ben i lawr oherwydd y ffaith yw mai busnesau ar hyd coridor yr M4 ac yna Cwm Rhymni oedd yn cysylltu â Chaerdydd, a dim llawer y tu allan i'r ardal honno. Felly, ceir her yn sicr i gael y cymunedau gwahanol hynny i gysylltu â Chanolfan Arloesi Menter Cymru. Rwyf yn arbennig eisiau gweld busnesau o Fargoed a Senghennydd yn cysylltu â Chanolfan Arloesi Menter Cymru, ond hefyd busnesau o gymunedau ledled y Cymoedd. Rydym ni'n gweld bod gan y mwyafrif helaeth o fusnesau ddiddordeb yn y rhannau deheuol; mae angen inni gysylltu'r Cymoedd gogleddol. Felly, beth all Llywodraeth Cymru ei wneud i annog hyn? Sylwaf yn ei ddatganiad ei fod yn sôn am ymgyrch benodol i gefnogi busnesau. A all ymhelaethu ychydig ynglŷn â beth y mae'n ei olygu wrth hynny a hefyd beth y mae'n ei olygu wrth y rhwydwaith cymheiriaid y cyfeiriodd ato yn ei ddatganiad? Byddai ymhelaethu ar y pethau hynny hefyd yn helpu Aelodau i ddeall sut yr ydym ni'n mynd i ddatblygu cymunedau a busnesau yn y Cymoedd gogleddol.
