We are pleased to announce that our next International Trade Forum will be delivered in partnership with our sponsors Expo Stars Interactive Ltd and will focus on how to successfully enter new markets.
In 2023, UK businesses exported £865 billion worth of goods and services to the EU and the rest of the world, resulting in a trade deficit of approximately £33 billion. Despite this, numerous opportunities exist for UK exporters to expand and enter new markets. The ITC Export Potential Map reveals an untapped export potential of £234 billion in trade of goods alone.
Entering new markets allow businesses to reach new levels of growth and diversification, opening up new opportunities to increase revenue and accessing a broader customer base. However, this process can be challenging due to differences in cultural, regulatory and economic environments. It is essential for businesses to develop and implement the right strategies to successfully navigate these complexities.
This Trade Forum will address the essential aspects for developing a market entry strategy for both new and experienced exporters. We will explore how trade shows and exhibitions can serve as an excellent initial step into the market, and will be joined by a panel of experts sharing insights in various areas.
