Exporting Design ‘Made in Somerset and Devon’ - A Free Crafts & Textiles Conference!

In collaboration with UKTI we will be holding a free conference on the 8th May 2013 titled Exporting Design ‘Made in Somerset and Devon’ – the free event will aim to introduce individuals and businesses delivering textile and traditional skill based work and products across Somerset & Devon to export and business development opportunities.
