. Pembrokeshire’s industrial skill set is cross-transferable and of value to the marine energy sector . Marine energy is still young and needs to drive down costs; supply chain experience held here could unlock cost efficiencies . Pembrokeshire has few large organisations - BUT is, collectively, a high skill cluster with extensive facilities . We need to sell our collective strengths as well as our individual capabilities . We need to understand each other’s capabilities and capacities . We need to continue to explore potential for partnership working and collaboration Lessons learnt
