UK Trade & Investment (UKTI) is holding a free seminar on Supporting Companies in the Global Sports Market at Manchester City Football Club on 27th March 2014.

This seminar will be highly focused on business support and the nature of the opportunities in the global sports and related infrastructure markets and how best to succeed. Most benefit will be for SMEs who wish to export for the first time or more extensively and who may also not be fully aware of UKTI support available.

The format will be round table discussions, briefings and case studies including how best to enter the supply chain. Attendees will get the chance to meet the expert speakers, ask questions about prior experience and the support available as well as well as network at this limited attendance event.

It will also be an opportunity to meet your local International Trade Adviser to discuss how to support you after the event and what resources are available as part of the follow up service. You can apply to exhibit or distribute marketing material free of charge based upon successful selection by filling out the attached short application form below.
