Companies are being invited to join a trade mission to the US and Canada as part of a Midlands Engine initiative which aims to boost economic growth across the Midlands.
This is a unique opportunity for Marches companies to take part in the inaugural Midlands Engine trade and investment mission, led by the Secretary of State for the Department of Business, Innovation & Skills.
For the first time, companies from across both East and West Midlands will be involved in a mission that will raise the profile of the region overseas and its strong
manufacturing industry.
The visit to Chicago and Toronto will focus primarily on Advanced Manufacturing and Food & Drink, and will offer great opportunities for companies to gain insights into two of our most important trading partners.
An additional leg of the mission will include Detroit for a special Automotive tailored activity and the high-profile programme will include events and receptions arranged by the British Consulates-General in Chicago, Detroit and Toronto for participants and guests.
For more information on the mission which takes place between September 18 and 22, and to register your interest, download the below pdfs.
