<p>United Kingdom Trade and Investment (UKTI) works with the video games sector, to
support exports and attract inward investment. A new international strategy for the
Creative Industries has been co-produced with the sector, and there is a joint commitment
to its implementation. For example UKTI and the UKIE worked together to deliver the
Digital Gaming event at the International Festival of Business in Liverpool in July
this year.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>UKTI supports sectorally-focused groups,
including those from the games sector, through both the Trade Access Programme (TAP)
and through the Events and Missions Programme. The amount allocated specifically to
the video games sector under these two programmes are shown in the table below together
with a figure which gives the value as a percentage of programme expenditure as a
whole (across all sectors). In addition, video games companies enjoy the support of
UKTI through general services available to all companies.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p>
