Doing Business in Asia: Meet the Experts
On Thursday 8th July and and Friday 9th July two unique UK Trade & Investment (UKTI) events took place in London and Manchester.
UKTI invited delegates to attend and learn from highly experienced business leaders and overseas trade experts from both the private and public sector, and benefit from their ‘on the ground’ first hand experience and knowledge. they were designed for businesses who have an interest in, or already have some experience of, Asian markets and wanted to develop.
Each event provided an opportunity to meet face-to-face with British Ambassadors, High Commissioners and other senior representatives from Asian markets, choosing from a range of sessions, including interactive Q&A market clinics, practical support sessions and networking opportunities, all focused to help teach more about key opportunities and the current economic and political climate in Asian markets.

Asian market opportunities
Asian economies are leading the global recovery, and are widely expected to grow strongly in the short and medium term, generating new opportunities for UK business. UK businesses are already succeeding in Asia and these markets account for an ever growing share of UK exports.
UKTI research shows that companies that export are more resilient, more competitive and more innovative. Exporters report achieving a level of growth otherwise not possible, and have already proved themselves more resilient during the down turn. Exporters have also been able to reduce business dependence on a single or small numbers of markets, and in so doing have been able to increase the commercial life span of their products or services.
More UK businesses are devoting attention to these markets and UKTI can help you explore and succeed in new markets in Asia, whether you are a small or medium-sized UK business new to exporting, or an existing exporter seeking to expand your business.
