UK Trade & Investment (UKTI) is presenting East Midland's businesses with global market opportunities thanks to an international Emerging Markets event they are hosting, in partnership with East Midlands International Trade Association (emita), at Sir Denis Rooke Building, Holywell Park, Loughborough on 25 February 2010. 

The half day event that runs from 09.00 - 13.20 and concludes with a networking lunch brings together a wealth of experience from overseas business experts who are hosting a variety of workshops on the day.    

Delegates who attend the Emerging Markets event can expect a full itinerary packed with information on how to identify opportunities in the emerging markets of India, Singapore & Malaysia, Saudi Arabia, Thailand & Vietnam, Turkey and UAE & Qatar.

Emerging Markets boasts of an impressive line up of guest speakers from the President of Boeing UK, Sir Roger Bone to the Economist Intelligence Unit's Senior Analyst for South Asia, Anjalika Bardalai.

Workshops will provide market overviews which address current trading conditions and business opportunities and offer practical advice on accessing the market and overcoming the challenges it may pose.

Juliet Pask, Manager of emita said: "The Emerging Markets event offers a blend of presentations and market specific workshops including case studies from inspiring and informative speakers, one to one advice and an exhibition of key partners and trade organisations.

"There will also be the opportunity to learn from the experiences of local companies who are already doing business in these markets, together with a chance to hear how to tap into the Indian market through establishing joint ventures.

"Delegates who attend will discover the possibilities that await them in these emerging markets and will gain access to the advice they need to assist them to achieve their goals."
