Government support and funding for overseas tradeshows

Attending overseas tradeshows can help you and your business break into new markets, make new contacts and grow your brand.  If you are an SME with a turnover of between £85k and £5m and little or no experience of overseas events then you could be eligible to receive government funding and support via the UK Tradeshow Programme from the Department for International Trade (DIT). Check if your business is eligible as all applicants will receive specialised training, with some also receiving grants to cover costs.

To find out more, visit https://www.gov.uk/guidance/uk-tradeshow-programme.

A list of supported tradeshows can be found here https://www.events.great.gov.uk/website/5935/.

For further enquiries contact the DIT Northwest Team via DITNW@trade.gov.uk
