Exporting can unlock significant growth for ambitious businesses across Devon andthe South West — but without the right preparation, international expansion can quickly become complex, costly, and distracting.
Our Export Readiness Workshop, co-hosted by Medilink South West and Innovate UK Business Growth, is designed to help business leaders assess whether they are ready to sell overseas and how to approach international markets with clarity and confidence.
This practical half-day session takes place in our Woodbury training room and supports organisations looking to expand beyond the UK while protecting cash flow, capability, and leadership focus. Rather than rushing into new territories, the workshop helps you slow down decision-making upfront — so growth is intentional, not reactive.
