Cornwall Trade and Investment is funded by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) and Cornwall Council.

Thirdly, as of early 2019, Cornwall Trade and Investment will work with Cornwall based SME's to help them export their products / services in the UK, Europe and internationally.

Potential inward investors will be SMEs attracted from a national or international audience. The SMEs will be either new start-ups or established businesses from the rest of the UK or overseas who are looking to expand their business operations into the region.
