Business investment in the UK
The UK is Europe’s number one destination for inward investment. Each year hundreds of companies from all over the world come to the UK to expand their international market share and increase their competitive advantage.
UK Trade & Investment (UKTI) is the UK Government’s international business development organisation. We support overseas companies doing business in the UK and help them to realise their growth potential.
By drawing on the experience of UKTI’s staff and extensive support networks your company can expand overseas more quickly, efficiently and confidently than you could by going it alone.
Whether you’re looking to set up in the UK for the first time, expand your existing UK business, or find a UK company to form a partnership, visit UKTI’s How we help businesses section and explore the range of services available to support you.
