Jayne Pickersgill, one of UK Trade and Investment's International Trade Advisors and sector lead for ICT, who will chair the event, said "this is a great opportunity for companies to find out about several different markets at one event. All our commercial officers live and work in their respective countries and can provide a valuable insight into what it's like to do business there.
"They will be offering one-to-one consultations to give direct and practical advice for delegates' own particular product or service. Our experts specialise in the ICT sector but can offer valuable information on how the market works and the opportunities for British businesses across a wide range of other sectors such as education and training, creative industries and consumer products."
