Ambition North Wales

Ambition North Wales (Welsh: Uchelgais Gogledd Cymru) is a joint committee and decision-making body overseeing the North Wales Growth Deal (Welsh: Bargen Twf Gogledd Cymru or Bargen Twf y Gogledd), a regional economic growth deal covering the North Wales region.

It is a partnership between the six local authorities of Conwy County Borough, Denbighshire, Flintshire, Gwynedd, Isle of Anglesey, and Wrexham County Borough, and other local partners in the region, including Bangor University, Wrexham University, Grŵp Llandrillo Menai, Coleg Cambria, and various private sector representatives.

Unlike the city regions in South Wales, North Wales lacks a definitive main economic and urban centre, with settlements such as Bangor, Llandudno, Deeside, Holyhead and Wrexham all having roles in the regional economy.

The board also was responsible for securing government funding for the growth deal during its bidding process.

Gwynedd Council is the host authority, responsible for holding the meetings, and managing financial statements for the board.
