Department for Trade & Industry

Successful business is the cornerstone of a thriving economy and the Department of Trade & Industry (DTI) is the governmental department working to construct the framework for this success.

It also aims to help narrow the productivity gap between the other industrial nations by addressing the constant challenges put forward by globalisation.

In order to achieve this, the DTI is focused on facilitating partnerships and promoting innovative and original thinking between government, business, unions and the scientific community.

A priority at the DTI is to cut the red tape that often burdens businesses, while at the same time protecting employees, consumers and the public.

By engaging in measures that support business success and fair market principles as well as conditions that encourage science and innovation, the DTI hopes to be able to maintain sustainable economic growth throughout the United Kingdom.

One of the integral parts of the DTI’s success is as a result of its developing diverse workforce, which ensures that the right skills are used in the right places to guarantee that it delivers on its objectives.
