British Council seeks design ambassadors

The British Council is inviting applications from design groups to take part in two trade missions to Japan and Poland.

The visits, organised to identify export opportunities and credentials showcasing to potential overseas clients, have been set up specifically for the creative industries.

Some funding is available from the Department of Trade and Industry to support design groups that are intending to participate.

The closing dates for applications for the Japan visit is set for 5 November and that for Poland has been set for 3 December.

Enquiries should be made to the export promotion advisor at The British Council, Andrew Senior, on 0171-930 8466.
