UK Trade & Investment (UKTI) is the lead government organisation that provides support for UK companies looking to develop international business and overseas companies wishing to invest in the UK. UKTI brings together the work of the Foreign & Commonwealth Office (FCO) and the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI).

"The services offered by UKTI bring together a network of business sector specialists and support teams in British embassies and FCO posts all around the world. UKTI works with a wide range of partner organisations in the UK, including Regional Development Agencies and the Devolved Administrations, Business Links, Chambers of Commerce and trade associations. Its work in the English regions is coordinated by nine International Trade Directors. The devolved administrations in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland have their own arrangements for local delivery of services. For more information, visit the web site at www.uktradeinvest.gov.uk.
