Internationalisation: Reaching Customers Overseas

Local business support organisations are coming together on 5th May in Aviemore to host an event as part of an ongoing initiative to help local businesses find out about, and harness, the support available to do business overseas.  

Entitled ‘Internationalisation: Reaching Customers Overseas’, the event will take place at The Coylumbridge Hotel in Aviemore between 1-4pm.

The Highland Council’s Enterprise Europe Network and Business Gateway services, the Inverness Chamber of Commerce, Highlands and Islands Enterprise, and Scottish Development International will be running the event.

The event will feature a video case study showcasing the unique ways in which each of the partner organisations can assist local businesses, stalls from the partners with further information and resources, two interactive workshops, and networking opportunities. On the day, attendees will also be able to book a one-to-one clinics to get advice specific to their business and begin working on a plan of action.

Chair of The Highland Council’s Planning, Development and Infrastructure Committee, Councillor Audrey Sinclair said: “There is a lot of assistance available to help businesses to reach customers overseas and together, these organisations are showcasing and clarifying what is available in terms of internationalisation support.”

“There are many global markets out there that want to tap into the fantastic products and services we in the Highlands have to offer. I hope the delegates that attend this event will gain a lot from the day and leave feeling supported, inspired and more confident to harness these opportunities.”
