54.2% of British exports now go to non-EU countries

£2.49bn – is the amount of VC funding British tech companies scored in 2018

110,000 VAT-registered businesses sold goods abroad in 2018 increasing 1.5% from 2017

74% of UK companies believe Open Banking will benefit them over the next two years

The UK is the top country in Europe for tech investment with London being the top city in 2018 for VC investment in tech companies at £1.8bn
