Have you been thinking about going to, or even exhibiting at, a trade show?

Going to, or exhibiting at, trade shows overseas is a GREAT way of getting your product or service known to potential buyers, and creating new networks to accelerate your business’s export development. The Department for Business and Trade is currently conducting business planning for 2023-2024. Details of the export support services delivered by us will be announced once the planning round has been concluded.
