News: Get the exporting essentials in Rotherham
UK Trade & Investment (UKTI) has teamed up with partners and business organisations to organise events in Rotherham to reach out to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).
Export Week (November 12 – 16) hopes to inspire and provide practical advice for exporters. It is part of a campaign led by Trade & Investment Minister Lord Green to increase the number of British exporters by roughly a quarter. In this way around £36 billion could be added to the UK economy.
In collaboration with Export Week a host of organisations, including banks, lawyers, export specialists and marketing specialists have joined forces with translation agency Talking Heads, SYTIC and UKTI to host a week long "Exporting Essentials" festival in the Sheffield City Region.
South Yorkshire International Trade Centre (SYITC) is hosting "Destination Export – an Interactive Journey" on November 13 at the Advanced Manufacturing Park (AMP) in Rotherham.
Delegates will hear from experts about the advantages of exporting to overseas markets. The countries discussed at the free event will be six of the key international markets – China, Mexico, Russia, Scandinavia, United Arab Emirates and the USA.
Delegates will "travel" around each country on an interactive digital tour and renowned and successful exporters from the Sheffield City Region will also discuss their exporting experiences and give advice to those looking to enter new markets.
Speakers will include Graham Honeyman, chief executive at Sheffield Forgemasters International and Jon Stewart, director at Siemens VAI, and Giles Searby, partner at Hill Dickinson LLP.
Representatives from UKTI, the Arab-British Chamber of Commerce, Creative Sheffield, HM Revenue and Customs, the University of Sheffield and Sheffield Chamber of Commerce will also be in attendance.
Exhibition and networking opportunities will be available, allowing delegates to discuss all matters of international trade with industry experts.
Mark Robson, regional director at UKTI, said: "This event will be a great opportunity for businesses to get practical and useful advice from overseas trade experts that will set them in good stead for expanding their own business internationally."
Other free events taking place at the AMP on November 13 include local language and culture experts Talking Heads hosting a workshop on communicating with international customers through printed and online information.
Businesses can also book in with experts in various export fields for a 15 minute one-to-one session.
