Green businesses in the South West looking to trade overseas will be able to receive export advice at the Environmental Trade Show UK (ETS UK) later this month.
Expert advisors from UK Trade and Investment South West (UKTI), Business West and Enterprise Europe Network (EEN) will be on hand in the International Trade Lounge at the event on October 13 at the University of the West of England Exhibition and Conference Centre in Bristol.
Organised by Low Carbon South West, ETS UK is a new trade show and conference bringing together the best in environmental and low carbon goods and services. The event has 100 confirmed exhibitors to date and is expected to draw some 2,000 visitors.
UKTI South West international trade advisor Andrew Fraser said: “This event is the perfect platform for UK organisations to showcase the innovative products and technologies that lie at the heart of the country’s emerging environmental sector.
“At the international trade lounge we will be providing one-to-one guidance to companies wanting to realise their overseas trade ambitions and giving advice on the best routes available to achieve their international objectives.”
Low Carbon South West chairman Alan Bailey added: “Low carbon technologies are recognised as a key sector for economic growth in the South West and we have many businesses here that are not only thriving in the UK, but also enjoying international success.
“Having experts present from UKTI South West, Business West and the Enterprise Europe Network is a great opportunity for exhibitors and visitors alike to access invaluable advice to help them target overseas markets and emulate international success in this ever growing sector.”
