Sir Thomas Harris KBE CMG From the Director-General UK Trade & Investment in the United States, Sir Thomas Harris,
"In an increasingly changing world, businesses that fail to exploit opportunities overseas are at a competitive disadvantage. Evidence on both sides of the Atlantic shows that firms which internationalize have higher rates of productivity, better overall performance and less chance of failure. The old divisions between traditional exporting and direct overseas investment are breaking down. New forms of partnering are emerging that will enable companies to develop overseas markets more effectively than ever before.

To reflect these global changes, the UK government has launched a new business support organization, UK Trade and Investment, which incorporates the best elements of Invest.UK and Trade Partners. UK Trade and Investment offers new and better ways to help British and American companies expand what is already the world’s most dynamic bilateral business relationship." Sir Thomas Harris KBE CMG
