Join the Department for International Trade North East and the UK-ASEAN Business Council (UKABC) to discover more on how your business can thrive in Southeast Asia.

As the UK leaves the EU, never has there been a more important time to promote the tremendous opportunities in Southeast Asia to UK companies. UK companies have global export choices to make and competition is loud and fierce.

Southeast Asia presents a unique opportunity for British investment to explore a region which is strategically placed, dynamic, high in growth and has strong demographics. It is one of the most fast moving and competitive regions in the world.

The Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN) is the third fastest growing economy behind India and China. It includes 10 diverse markets ranging from the advanced and accessible economies of Singapore and Malaysia to the developing, high-growth markets of Cambodia and Myanmar and it is no exaggeration to say that there are opportunities for UK companies across all sectors. The UKABC October roadshow programme will also include the opportunity to have 1-2-1 meetings across the day with the Executive Directors of the British Chambers of Commerce in ASEAN, our incountry partners.

Event Format
A full day’s programme consisting of:

• Workshop – Practical advice on doing business in ASEAN.
