Inspite of the continued uncertainty due to Brexit, U.K. remains the second largest export market of the Indian IT Industry. All major Indian IT companies have a significant presence in the U.K. and contributing enormously to the British economy and workforce. However, it is also the market where the SMEs struggle to find the right base, an appropriate landing point and cater to suitable market opportunities. NASSCOM is cognizant of this and this program is an effort that intends to bridge this gap.

Announcing the first edition of NASSCOM’s exclusive SME Program – designed specifically to provide a gateway to the U.K. market. The program will provide a one-of-its kind opportunity for SMEs by way of easing access to entry in a mature market; and charting new avenues of business growth and expansion.

Scheduled for June 10-14, 2019 and coinciding with the London Tech Week (www.londontechweek.com), the broad benefits of the Program will include:
