The programme has so far helped to:
– relocate 340 businesses to the UK
– create over 1000 jobs in the UK economy
– raise over £1 billion of private investment for companies
– support is free and includes:
– help to develop business plans
– assistance with relocating to the UK
– providing introductions to investors
– guidance on how to grow internationally
– mentoring from experienced entrepreneurs
– continued help once located in the UK
In return for this support, overseas entrepreneurs are encouraged to set up their headquarters in the UK.
How it works
To qualify for GEP support, you must be:
