BUSINESS is GREAT Flag Blue RGB EXCP

The UK has consistently attracted more foreign investments with HQ operations than any other location in Europe; a clear endorsement of our business-friendly regulations and thriving environment for innovation and growth.

UK Trade & Investment, member and partner of the Spanish Chamber of Commerce, is the government department that works with UK based businesses to ensure their success in international markets through exports. They also support overseas companies to look at the UK as the best place to set up or expand their business.

UK Trade & Investment (UKTI) recorded 1,773 foreign direct investment (FDI) projects landing in the UK in 2013/14, up from 1,559 in 2012/13, which supported over 111,000 jobs. UKTI and its partners supported 1,462 of those projects.

The UK – home of innovative start-ups

If you are an entrepreneur leading an early-stage technology company overseas, UKTI has a great offer. Come and set up your global headquarters in the UK. UKTI’s Global Entrepreneur Programme (GEP) will help you accelerate your products and services into global markets. This support is provided by a group of internationally successful entrepreneurs – ‘dealmakers’ with expertise and a network of contacts to make things happen. GEP companies have raised approximately £1 billion of venture capital since the programme began eight years ago.

The UK also welcomes the world’s most talented graduate entrepreneurs. Under UKTI’s pioneering Sirius Programme, students and recent graduates with an early-stage business idea can apply to relocate to the UK and get support to fast-track their business from idea to reality. The package includes funding, a place on a programme to speed up commercialisation and mentoring support.


Managing relationships with existing investors

UKTI’s global network is fully focused on supporting existing investors in growing their business in the UK, and exporting into other markets. The Strategic Relationship Management (SRM) programme brings together teams from across Government to form networks led by a designated Contact Minister to work with each company. These networks help to consider the interests and priorities of the individual companies involved, and to agree a long-term strategy for generating continued economic benefit from the UK’s major wealth creators.
UKTI’s message is a clear one – the UK’s door is firmly open for business – and they are ready to make your UK investment work.
