London & Partners

London & Partners is a not-for-profit public private partnership, funded by the Mayor of London and our network of commercial partners.

We work in partnership with organisations in London and across the world to deliver our vision and mission.

London & Partners was created in order to bring together the remits of the capital's promotional agencies: Think London, Study London and Visit London. The aim is to create one single promotional organisation for London that can speak with one voice, vision and mission to all audiences in the UK and internationally.

Our remit is to drive leisure and business visitors as well as bidding to secure major events in London. We can unlock the city for new businesses that want to set up or expand in London and we promote the capital's world class universities to international students.

London & Partners was launched on 1 April 2011.

London & Partners: Foreign Direct Investment (FDI)

We are the experts on doing business in the capital.

We connect international businesses to London, helping them set up, succeed and grow. Our service is comprehensive, confidential and funded – therefore at no cost to our clients.

We open up direct access to expert and experienced professionals, who advise and guide overseas companies through every aspect of locating and doing business in London.

Our experts work with government and the business community to provide access to the best people, places and opportunities in the city.

We promote London as the first choice for any overseas business expanding into the UK or Europe — from start-ups to established international companies.

Every 3 days we help, on average, one overseas company to set up or expand business in London
