UK Roadshow to Showcase Green Technology for Overseas Markets

By David Bicknell

Peterborough will play host on July 5th to a roadshow showcasing solutions in the green IT or ‘greentech’ technology sectors.

The UK Trade and Investment (UKTI) GreenTech Road Show will bring buyers and decision makers from markets including Australia, Bulgaria, China, Hungary, India, Kuwait, Portugal, Romania, Russia, Turkey and UAE into the UK to look at the UK’s capabilities across the spectrum of ‘green’ technologies. The delegates have specific interests in green energy production, energy efficiency, green building technology, cleaner production technologies, waste management and water and wastewater treatment.  

The event will be a regionally focused day dedicated to developing interactions between UK suppliers and the visiting ‘buyers’ and UK Trade & Investment officers.

The morning will offer briefing sessions aimed at UK companies that are relatively new to exports and will offer advice on export services available from UKTI. Advice will be on hand from UKTI regional contacts and Trade & Investment Officers based in overseas embassies, as well as details of how UKTI is promoting the UK’s Low Carbon know-how around the world.

The event, to be held at the Bull Hotel, will also feature ‘Meet the Buyer’ sessions in the afternoon, giving greentech vendors the opportunity to book 1-1 meetings with either the overseas buyers or Trade & Investment Officers. 

Places on the GreenTech Road Show are free of charge. For more information, email garry.poole@uktradeinvest.gov.uk
