Collaboration covering every continent
Ruta Aisthorpe, Director of Global Operations and Partnerships, shares about upcoming activities for the April edition of the SMMT International Update.
Collaboration sits at the heart of what SMMT does internationally, and the past month has been a strong reminder of that. Working in partnership with Zenzic and the Department for Business and Trade, we successfully hosted the Future Mobility Week delegation – showcasing the strength of the UK’s mobility offering and helping to forge valuable global connections.
Organising global market engagement remains critical. That’s why SMMT International delivers a year-round calendar of overseas activity – enabling UK automotive businesses to connect with key international stakeholders, explore new markets, and stay competitive in an increasingly global arena. The strength of the UK’s automotive technology and innovation is recognised around the world, and we continue to work closely with our partners to ensure that our members are visible, engaged, and well-supported internationally.
Looking ahead, we encourage members to join us at upcoming international events in Thailand, France, US and beyond — unique opportunities to showcase UK expertise and grow your global network.
Upcoming events:
2-4 July, Thailand: Trade show – MobilityTech Asia Bangkok exhibit on the UK pavilion
6-9 October, USA: Trade mission – Southeastern EV supply chain join the trade mission to Alabama and Tennessee
