The networking organisation and its members unveiled the Thames Valley UK Launch Pad service at an event on January 14th to offer support to overseas firms considering investing in the local area.
Under the scheme, inward-investing businesses coming into the Thames Valley for the first time will be able access a package of professional services to reduce the time and costs associated with their investments.
Foreign direct investors receive a free consultation with lawyers and accountants about issues such as VAT, employing expat staff and entity registration.
In addition, a special offer allows companies to benefit from six months of office space rent-free at 14 business locations in the valley.
'Thames Valley UK Launch Pad comprises a team of tried and tested professionals. It offers new investors 'one-stop' to competitive advantage,' the TVEP said on its website.
The TVEP works with organisations operating in the region, such as Cisco Systems, Vodafone, Microsoft and GCS Recruitment, to support the local business environment.
