The techUK podcast - Key considerations for doing business in the UK

In this episode, we discuss Hawksford's latest report 'Doing Business in the UK' and the how companies can expand into new markets.

 

International Trade matters for the tech sector and as techUK's Local Digital Index has shown this is also an important factor in assessing the strength of local tech ecosystems.

Hawksford's latest report "Doing Business in the UK" shows the importance of these global markets and helps companies plan and consider how they'll engage and do business across numerous different countries, with different regulatory systems, specialisms and tech priorities. 

Listen to the fascinating and insighful discussion between Matt Robinson, techUK's Head of Nations and Regions, and Winnie Seow Mei, Asia Market, for Hawksford.
