76e8d8c1-7b69-4392-9fc7-41490a8b4763-159595Future Cities Missions take up to 20 of the UK's best young, innovative, high-growth potential companies to overseas markets to help them grow faster. Missions achieve this by supporting the SMEs to: • Network with potential customer, partners and investors • Improve their Profile through PR coverage • Refine their Pitch to potential investors and to suit the target market • Gain Insight into what it takes to do business in the target market • Raise their Ambition and accelerate their plans This support and experience is hard for young companies to gain. The Missions also open doors that would be closed to a SME alone.
