UK Exhibition To Drive Overseas Trade
Innovative event encourages British business owners to step onto the global stage
If you’re looking to expand your business internationally, export products or set up overseas operations, then you need to visit the Going Global exhibition and conference at London Olympia on 28-29th November. With educational seminars, workshops, networking events and interactive features, the event is supported by leading international trade organisations.
Statistics from UK Trade and Investment (UKTI) show that companies which export see a 34% increase in productivity within the first year. They are also 11% more likely to survive. So it’s no surprise that half of the big companies who have been successful in the UK want to launch abroad. The UK Government is encouraging exportation to increase economic growth, making now a great time for Going Global.
Your business can raise its profile on the global stage at the same time as acquiring the latest knowledge, information and education to better export your products or set up overseas operations, thanks to Going Global’s unique combination of learning opportunities and intense networking. Exclusive seminars will focus on Europe and each of the BRICS economies (Brazil, Russian, India, China and South Africa), addressing the most important issues, challenges and opportunities with expanding into these countries and cultures. Our series of seminars will also explore the Arabian Gulf, including the UAE.
Running next door to the 30th Business Show, all the seminars, workshops and networking opportunities are all under one roof and completely free! Going Global 2013 is the definitive event for any UK business looking to trade overseas. Book your tickets online now at www.goinggloballive.co.uk
