The great.gov.uk website offers small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) digital tools to start or expand exporting. Companies across the UK can access our overseas network, high-value campaigns and international events programme. In addition, last year UK Export Finance provided £3 billion to 221 UK companies - 79% of which were SMEs.
