UKTI have been advised that Senior Government Officials will be visiting the UK in the coming weeks for the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM).
In support of this visit they are collating a package of commercial announcements between the UK and Commonwealth member countries, e.g. contract signings and investment announcements. As such, they are keen to engage with you if you are likely to have any commercial announcements connected to these markets – which are not already in the public domain and can be announced by Senior Government Officials.
Please complete the below table and return to Matthew Rice (matthew.rice@trade.gov.uk) by Tuesday 27th March 2018
On receipt, the team will be in touch to discuss further. No assurances can be given from the outset that deals will form part of the package of announcements for the visit.
