Trade Promotion: India
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for International Trade, how much her Department spent on funding British businesses to attend trade shows in India (a) in 2021 (b) to date in 2022; and if she will make a statement.
- Answer
-
All of the tradeshows in India that the Department for International Trade (DIT) had planned to support at the start of 2021 (January – March) via the old Tradeshow Access Programme were cancelled due to Covid. Tradeshows in India for the remainder of 2021 were also cancelled.
We are however making support available to UK businesses for them to attend and exhibit at a number of events in India for the remainder of 2022/23, via the new UK Tradeshow Programme.
DIT actively supports businesses in a variety of ways to seek export opportunities in India.
