Frequently Asked Questions

We are part of UK Trade and Investment, the Government organisation that supports companies in the UK doing business internationally and overseas enterprises seeking to set up or expand in the UK.

We work closely with our colleagues in the UK including with the Department for International Development, with UKTI's Aid Funded Business Service, as well as with UKTI's regional offices, with Business Links and with a number of Chambers of Commerce. We also work with our UKTI colleagues in British Embassies in countries which are beneficiaries of the EU's external aid programme. This close co-ordination ensures that British companies have support throughout the whole process of bidding for and working on an EU aid funded contract.
