BMEA grants available to companies looking to develop overseas business
BMEA has recently announced significant funding for a number of key international events.
The UKTI Tradeshow Access Programme (TAP) supports companies at overseas exhibitions.
The objective of exhibition support is to help, primarily, newly exporting SMEs to learn how to use exhibitions as a key tool in their trade development plans. The support is intended to work most efficiently as part of a development programme for eligible businesses which Accredited Trade Organisations (ATOs) and UKTI's regional network can help to facilitate.
This is the last chance for UK SMEs to take advantage of TAP grants worth up to £1400 for Marintec 2009 (1-4 December).
Marintec is one of the most prestigious marine trade fairs in the world. Newbuild orders in China are picking up rapidly. A study by Clarkson Research Services, show in july 2009 some 4.34 million DWT of new ships were contracted. Many of the Chinese yards have also turned to repair and conversion work, so demand for overseas equipment and services remain high.
Please contact Anna Ridout by emailing bmea@maritimeindustries.org for full terms and conditions or to request a TAP application form.
