The Department for International Trade (DIT) invites you to join us at the British Consulate-General, for another event in our ‘DIT Investment series’, to hear why the UK is Europe’s No.1 Tech Hub and what is on offer for HK Entrepreneurs.

 

The UK has one of the world’s largest technology ecosystems with thousands of tech start-ups, built around a strong entrepreneurial culture. Due to our global connectivity, attractive tax environment and talented workforce, the UK attracts tech firms from all over the world and in all stages of their growth journeys.

 

The UK hosts more than 70 unicorns; the highest number in Europe, more than 1.5 million people work in the digital sector and in 2018, more that £6b venture capital was invested in UK tech. It is therefore not surprising that companies like Microsoft, Facebook and Amazon have all recently announced major expansions in the UK, and we have welcomed a large number of new fin-tech, travel-tech and Ed-tech companies.

 

During our seminar, you will heard from our speakers what makes the UK such an attractive location for technology companies and what support is available from the UK government. You will also have a chance to learn more about DIT’s Global Entrepreneur Programme (GEP), the UK’s immigration rules and the unique strengths of London, Scotland and Northern Ireland as potential locations for your company.
