The British Plastics Federation and UK Trade & Investment are holding a seminar entitled Opportunities for UK Plastics Companies in India. The seminar will be held on Thursday 5th November 2009 at 10:30 in the BPF office, London. The event is subsidised by UK Trade & Investment and therefore registration is only £50.

The Seminar Programme includes a presentation by Lal Singh, a Vice Chairman of PlastIndia Foundation (which represents over 50,000 Indian plastics companies and organises the PlastIndia exhibition) alongside specialists on India from UK Trade & Investment and the UK India Business Council together with two case-studies from experienced UK exporters to this market.

The presentations will include the following topics:

- A guide to doing business in India - understanding the culture and business etiquette
- An economic overview of India
- Case studies of UK companies in the Indian plastics market
- Current and future trends in the Indian plastics market
- Opportunities for UK companies in emerging cities in India

BPF Business Development Manager, Stephen Hunt says:

“India provides a wealth of opportunity for UK plastics companies, consequently the BPF has consistently worked to develop contacts in India that can help its members to win business. To this end the BPF signed a Memorandum of Mutual Understanding with the Organisation of Plastics Processors of India  in 2005 and with the PlastIndia Foundation in 2009. This UK Trade & Investment sponsored seminar will provide delegates with knowledge of the Indian plastics market and how to do business there, thus assisting them to enter the market confidently and to harness the opportunities that exist.”
