Objective, the Chelmsford-based technology partner, has been invited to join the Grow London Global programme, designed specifically for innovative technology companies that want to expand internationally, unlock global growth ambitions and break into new markets.
Run by the Mayor of London’s International Business Programme, through London & Partners, the 12-month programme supports the city’s most innovative and high-growth businesses as they seek to further expand into international markets. Grow London Global has already helped 1,300 scaleups including Monzo, Mr & Mrs Smith and Bloom & Wild reach their global expansion goals.
For the first time, six businesses from Essex, supported by Essex County Council are taking part. Objective is delighted to be one of the first Essex businesses to participate in the Grow London Global programme which provides invaluable opportunities for business growth, including access to corporate engagement, programme partners and a global network of industry leaders. With a focus on accelerating international expansion, the programme will help Objective build partnerships and unlock new market opportunities across key global regions.
The Grow London Global programme only launched in 2023 and has already helped some of the UK’s fastest-growing businesses. The programme provides expert advice and workshops where participants can gain valuable connections and learn from other industry experts. Objective will also benefit from being part of targeted trade missions, access to high-level events, and introductions to potential investors. Objective is poised to take full advantage of this opportunity to drive its vision forward, enhance its global reach, and make a lasting impact in its industry and further strengthen innovation in Essex.
Lara Fox, Director of Objective, said: “We are thrilled to be selected for the Grow London Global programme. While we already do a lot of business across the globe, we believe there is still a lot of untapped potential in international markets for Objective as the growth of AI and data science continues to build momentum.
This opportunity will provide us with the resources and connections to scale the business and increase our international presence. It’s a significant milestone for us as we look to build on our track record of success and bring our innovative solutions to new markets around the world.”
Michael Veasey, Sector Growth Manager at Essex County Council said: “This is a great opportunity for businesses to join a world leading scale up and internationalisation programme. We are looking forward to seeing outstanding results from these businesses.”
