Delcam and Birmingham Airport take part in India visit

West Midland firms Delcam and Birmingham Airport are among 50 companies travelling to India for a trade delegation.
Business Secretary Vince Cable is joining the company on the visit to India, one of the world’s most dynamic economies, to strengthen the enhanced partnership between the two countries and co-chair trade talks.
The visit follows on from the mission led by Prime Minister David Cameron in July last year. Dr Cable, who was part of that trade mission, will be the first UK Cabinet Minister to visit this year.
Mr Cable said: “Last year, we set out a broad framework for our enhanced partnership. In 2011, we are moving beyond that, rolling up our sleeves and working together.
“India is very important to the UK, and the UK has the expertise to develop the capacities it needs to fuel its growth. Our business relationship is already strong, but it could be stronger.
The UK’s bilateral trade with India is currently worth around £11.5bn. Exports have continued to grow since the July visit with latest figures showing a rise of 35 per cent in UK exports to India in the year to October.
