International Trade Group First Wednesday Networking
Our First Wednesday events bring together directors, business leaders, exporters, advisers and others interested in international trade and overseas markets.
The evening offers an informal opportunity to make new connections, exchange experiences and discuss the opportunities and challenges facing UK businesses trading internationally.
Whether you are already active in international markets, considering overseas expansion or simply interested in international trade, you will be very welcome to join us.
There will be plenty of time for conversation and networking with fellow IoD members and guests in the relaxed surroundings of the Little Ship Club.
