WE ARE the voice OF business
PROFESSIONAL AND BUSINESS SERVICES - Businesses will be supported to enter new markets and grow exports, backed by a renewed focus from UK regulators on negotiating mutual recognition of professional qualifications agreements. This reflects our ongoing calls for government support to strengthen international trade. - There will be greater access to growth finance in all regions of the UK, with a focus on early-stage support for raising capital and attracting inward investment. Although details are yet to be confirmed, the indication that all regions will benefit is positive for our North East members. - Positioning the UK as an international leader in setting standards and regulations will help create global demand for professional and business services, which we welcome as part of our commitment to promoting an international North East. - A Smart Data programme will be developed for the property sector to improve data sharing across the real estate industry and drive innovation. - Access will be ensured to UK Export Finance’s recently launched Early Project Services Guarantee, which provides competitive finance terms for international buyers to procure early project services from UK-based businesses. This strategy reinforces a clear commitment to upskilling our workforce and boosting international trade, which are two priorities at the heart of our stronger, fairer North East vision. By improving skills, removing barriers to global mobility and helping businesses expand into new markets, these measures can unlock growth and opportunities for our region’s professional and business services sector.
