The National Flagship will promote the UK's interests around the world over the course of its 30 year service. Exhibitions, trade fairs, conferences already contribute billions to the UK economy each year. The National Flagship will allow us to host more of these events more prominently around the world. The Government is currently considering the potential additional annual value of trade and investment that the National Flagship will bring into the UK economy.
