Insider's International Breakfast – book your place now
There is still time to book your place at Insider’s International Trade Breakfast event, to be held at the Park Plaza hotel in Nottingham on Thursday 1 September.
Export is at the top of the government's growth agenda, and it is widely recognised that Midlands companies need to seize overseas opportunities while the domestic market remains sluggish.
In this Question Time-style event we discuss the main challenges facing established exporters, and those looking to enter the overseas market for the first time. We'll examine the emerging markets and ask where the next growth opportunities are to be found.
On the panel for this event, we’re delighted to be joined by: Peter Hogarth, international trade director, UKTI East Midlands; Andrew Pickin, partner, law firm Shoosmiths; Ashley Sowerby, managing director, Chevin Fleet Solutions; Andy Stocker, head of FX & FX options, UK coverage, RBS; and Brian Turpin, managing director, corporate trade finance sales, RBS.
We'll discuss how Midlands companies can harness these opportunities and establish whether the government is doing enough to help those businesses looking to do business further afield.
With input from an invited audience of business owners, company directors, and professionals this is sure to be a lively debate.
