Export Achievements
Attending Department for Business & Trade (DBT) and UKEF international events have played an important role in helping us gain access to key project stakeholders abroad and secure major contracts for hospital projects in the Middle East, Far East, Malaysia and Australia. These connections ultimately led to significant growth in export business.
DBT Support
International Trade Adviser Steve Morrison and sector specialist Louise Stock have worked closely with Midland Lead to support the implementation of their export strategy. When dealing with potential contracts in Hong Kong and Saudi Arabia, it was the intervention and support from the DBT teams in market that added influence and credibility to the business.
