Question to the Department for Business and Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, what steps his Department is taking to promote exports from small and medium-sized businesses to emerging markets.

Our Trade Strategy, Industrial Strategy, and Small Business Plan drive export-led growth — giving small and medium-sized businesses across the UK the policies, support, and services they need to compete globally.

For the first time, DBT has integrated its support for SMEs in a single, accessible place – the Business Growth Service – designed to help businesses across the UK start, scale, and succeed globally. From tailored market advice and free Business Academy training to UK Export Finance, DBT is making it easier for businesses to navigate global markets, seize opportunities, and build resilience.
