The ARCH Portfolio

ARCH is a long term transformational collaboration that aims to improve the health, wealth and wellbeing of the South West Wales region.

We have an ambitious portfolio of regional work, delivered through 4 programmes of work as set out in the ARCH Portfolio Development Plan and underpinned by the Welsh Government publication ‘A Healthier Wales’,

We believe a joined up regional approach is the only way we will be able to deliver meaningful change to address service pressures, workforce fragility and to drive a vibrant life science economy.

Research, Enterprise and Innovation

The aim of the ARCH Research, Enterprise and Innovation Programme is to expand Institute of Life Sciences (ILS) facilities and activity across the region and drive an ecosystem of vibrant life sciences as follows over the next 1-3 years.
