Department of International Trade East Midlands Parliamentary Export Programme

Jan 19, 2021

The Parliamentary Export Programme (PEP) is series of webinars held for businesses in their own constituency and chaired by their local MP. Taking place from the end of January to the end of March 2021, these interactive sessions will offer you access to expert advice and practical guidance on growing and expanding exports.

The webinars will include updates from HMRC and DIT on trading and opportunities after Brexit. Panellists will include a local experienced exporter, an International Trade Adviser and Export Finance expert. These sessions are relevant to all businesses, whether you have never exported before, exported in the past or are a current exporter. Full details of the programme can be found here.
