Professor Gordon McVie, chairman of Proton Partners, emphasised that the company was international, and will be a significant economic asset for Wales. He said: "Our company will also create a critical mass of fast particle scientists, and be the training centre for new staff in each of the future UK centres. We have partnered with bluechip world leading companies, Philips and IBA, and we shall become an international centre of excellence, sharing in the European Proton Networks from which UK has so far been excluded. Our fundraising will continue as we already have advanced plans for three overseas centres."
