The Department for Business and Trade (DBT) is collaborating with CENEX and the Advanced Propulsion Centre (APC), to bring key international buyers to the UK to engage with suppliers to the Automotive Industry at this year’s Expo.
This is the only Meet the Buyer event in the UK in 2025 that will be recruiting exclusively from an international pool of OEMs and Tier 1s. Buyers DBT has worked with previously include Bosch, BMW and General Motors.
DBT will be facilitating one-to-one appointments with these international buyers to help you unlock new opportunities, gain insights, and grow your networks and overseas sales. Some of the buyers will be accompanied by our overseas DBT staff and they will also be available for meetings. The location for meetings is in the workshop dome at Cenex Expo on Thursday 4th September.
