F
ive pilot Local Export Partnerships (LEPs) have been launched by the Scottish Government and Scottish
Chambers of Commerce to increase the number of firms exporting their products and services. The aim of the LEPs is to offer support
and expertise to companies, particularly SMEs, with little or no previous exporting experience to help them enter international markets. The Glasgow and Lanarkshire Local Export Partnership includes Glasgow Chamber of Commerce, Lanarkshire Chamber of Commerce, Scottish Development International, Glasgow City Council, Business Gateway Glasgow, North and South Lanarkshire Councils and Lanarkshire Enterprise Services. Over the past year, the LEP has been developing essential products to support businesses getting ready to start trading internationally. The most recent of these is Passport to Export.
Passport to Export Passport to Export is a series of short, sharp, interactive workshops that will give you all the information you need to start trading internationally. Through four workshops the Passport to Export will help you explore the exciting prospect of growing your business on the global stage. If you have little or no previous exporting experience but would like to find out what is involved then these workshops are for you. The workshops are FREE and will be delivered between 8.30am and 10.00am so that they don’t impact too much on your working day. You will
have the opportunity for networking at the beginning and end of the workshop and will also hear from businesses who have already taken the first steps into exporting.
