Case study
Creating UK jobs by reaching out internationally
A New York based provider of branding and design solutions recently opened an office in the UK thanks to support received after registering on the London 2012 CompeteFor website.
The company, which serves industries such as sports, entertainment, fashion, technology, food and beverages, registered on CompeteFor in January 2009. Boasting Olympic experience with sponsors and governing bodies, the company was looking to promote its capabilities to LOCOG and its partners.
The firm was subsequently contacted by representatives of UKTI and Think London, who discussed business opportunities in the UK. They helped the provider to establish a London office four months later and to recruit UK staff.
The company’s Chief Executive explained: “UKTI and Think London provided us with invaluable support in setting up our London operation, including guidance and assistance with visa applications, introductions to professional services agencies, networking with prospects and support agencies and access to ready to use office space.”
