Kent International Business (KIB) is a Kent-wide partnership led by Kent County Council which aims to encourage and support Kent businesses in all aspects of international trade.
International trade is a proven route to business growth and is a key opportunity for Kent firms to take products and services to new markets which, in turn, helps boost the local economy.
The “Success in International Markets” KEIBA award will not only celebrate the achievements of Kent’s firms which are already successfully doing business in overseas markets but also demonstrate that it is possible for Kent businesses to succeed overseas.
With the UK economy set to recover slowly from the recession, entering new overseas markets can be an effective way of growing a business. Kent is well-placed to maximize opportunities to trade internationally and the Kent International Business initiative led by Kent County Council aims to support Kent firms in all aspects of international trade
