US Clean Energy Opportunities Roadshow (July 28, 2009)
In preparation for the mission, UK Trade & Investment (UKTI) hosted a six day US Cleantech Roadshow to the UK to showcase the UK’s excellence in the cleantech sector. More than 100 UK and US companies learned about transatlantic opportunities and potential collaborations in the US Marketplace.
