Ian Williams Limited, one of the UK's leading property services companies, took an active role at the recent Welsh Transnational Conference at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium.
The conference, the third of its kind, sought to raise awareness of the problems facing minority and ethnic groups.
Representatives from Holland, Spain and Finland, joined delegates from Wales and other parts of the UK to discuss the difficulties facing disadvantaged communities and the success of strategies designed to address these problems at both a national and international level.
As the only contractor at the event, Ian Williams joined representatives of special interest groups including the Black Environment Network (which campaigns for better employment opportunities for and training for ethnic minorities) and the Minorities Ethnic Women's Network - which promotes a better understanding of the specific problems facing women in work.
Working in partnership with the All Wales Ethnic Minority Association, the Lead Partner at the conference, Ian Williams was able to actively contribute both as an experienced employer of members from various minority communities and also as a company with considerable experience of maintenance and refurbishment projects in all market sectors including Black and Ethnic communities.
Ian Williams viewed the conference as a great opportunity to learn more about different groups and how best to address their needs and the specific difficulties they face.
As Richard Leyshon, Business Development Manager, for Ian Williams is keen to explain: "As a company, we are committed to respecting the needs of all our customers and employees".
"We don't wish anyone to feel alienated".
"Ian Williams made a useful contribution to the conference at several different levels".
"We also came away from the conference with a better understanding of the problems minority groups face and a renewed sense of the importance in finding solutions to these problems.
