Cambridge, MA | Posted on June 19th, 2012

During the six weeks of the 2012 Games, the British Business Embassy will host 18 days of global business summits and a Global Investment Conference, which will be one of the largest Britain has ever seen. The programme is being run by UK Trade & Investment, and is expected over time to generate Ł1 billion of additional revenue for the economy.

Prime Minister David Cameron has said: "This summer's Olympics will put the eyes of the world on Britain as we host not just an unparalleled sporting spectacle, but also a chance for companies from across the globe to interact and do business here in the UK.

"A wide range of British companies will be involved alongside the world's leading business figures in this exciting programme of events…"

Endomagnetics CEO Dr Eric Mayes said: "We are delighted and honoured to have been selected to represent British excellence in these important showcase opportunities. Our technology has clear global potential, and we look forward to forging new relationships."

The British Business Embassy forms the centrepiece of the Government's Olympic legacy strategy and will run a programme of conferences, events and networking opportunities starting at the end of July.
