Edinburgh Chamber of Commerce has launched a wider International Programme of events and support.
From our research we appreciate that some companies are already exporting but that there is an interest in gaining more information on international growing markets. As such, we have put together a selection of different international events and support. We host the Europe Direct Information Centre at our office on 40 George Street. We also offer International Documentation Services.
Taster events on new international markets
For businesses which are either new to exporting or are already thinking of exporting we have developed a series of new market taster events focusing on a particular country in collaboration with International organizations/chambers and consulates.
