MediWales’ next event will highlight the support available for International Trade shows from Welsh Government and UKTI with funding of up to £3,000 for eligible companies exhibiting in new markets at events such as Hospitalar, Africa Health and Bio San Diego.

The speaker programme will include Howard Lyons, MD of Healthcare UK, Peter Wheeler UKTI Trade Advisor, Medilink Yorkshire & Humber and the Welsh Government trade team. We will also showcase the experiences of successful exporting companies such as EKF discussing how they approached their export strategy and advice on how to break into new markets.

Healthcare UK helps health service providers develop overseas business such as medical training, by promoting the UK healthcare sector to overseas markets and supporting healthcare partnerships between the UK and overseas healthcare providers.

Advice on the funding and support available to companies from Welsh Government and the up and coming trade shows, Hospitalar in Brazil, Africa Health Johannesburg, Bio San Diego and other international opportunities.
