Springboard : An Inspiring, Intelligent Magazine for International Business
March sees the publication of the spring issue of springboard magazine, UK Trade & Investments international business magazine. As usual this issue is packed with valuable insight, advice and information for UK-based businesses looking to expand globally.This quarter we take a look at the rising importance of home businesses and how those entrepreneurs who started out their companies on the kitchen table are now increasingly valuable to the UK economy. We also examine the growing importance of communications technology to a business’s success through our feature on the increasing use of webinars as a business tool and in our main interview with Sháá Wasmund, founder of smarta.com, the site that offers UK entrepreneurs and small business owners a place to exchange ideas and support.
Further afield we explore why the Russian market’s increasing consumerism presents UK companies with a great opportunity for growth and the ‘Perspective’ section rounds up the latest news and views from our offices in the Nordic and Baltic States. We also preview the upcoming World Expo in Shanghai, the biggest event of its kind that the world has ever seen and where the UK’s ‘Seed Cathedral’ pavilion will showcase the UK’s strength and innovation in key sectors.
