Curated introductions and events in London for international companies, investors and governments.
ConnectUK connects international companies, investors, governments and embassies with the UK decision-makers they need to meet. Curated events are how we do it: the right people, in one room, with a reason to do business.
Not a consultancy, not an events agency. We are connectors: we know who you need to meet, we bring you together and we make sure it turns into business.
On the ground in London, with direct access to UK institutions.
Strong ties across Latin America, Asia and wider global networks.
Working relationships with the Department for Business and Trade and British Embassies.
Most lead generation buys reach, not relationships.
Thousands of visitors, few buyers. Expensive stands and little control over who you meet.
Clicks and form fills that rarely reach the C-suite. A high cost per qualified lead.
The decision-makers you need, hand-picked and introduced to you in person. Fewer contacts, far higher quality and a lower cost per acquisition.
Objectives, who you need to meet and budget agreed.
We identify and qualify the right decision-makers.
Hand-picked guests invited on your behalf.
Format and venue set; introductions made on the day.
Opt-in leads, a report and follow-up meetings.
Companies entering or growing in the UK, and brands that want direct access to a qualified audience.
Embassies, trade bodies and investment agencies connecting their companies with UK counterparts.
International platforms bringing an edition to London that need UK access and guests, like the Brazil Korea Conference.
Founded in 2016 by lawyer Su Jung Ko, the Brazil Korea Conference has spent ten years building business between Brazil and Korea. After 13 editions, it reached 400 participants at Cubo Itaú, São Paulo, in 2024 and moved to Torre FKI, Seoul, in 2025.
In 2026 the 14th edition came to London, with ConnectUK as UK partner: local connections, UK guest curation and venue. It took place on 23 September at the Great Room, RSA House, followed by São Paulo on 22 October.
A selected audience of senior people, not open registration.
A clear corridor gives every guest a reason to be there.
Sponsors buy access to people, not just logo space.
One format now runs in three cities and can run in more.
This is the model ConnectUK brings to every client.
