145 nations are participating including the UK’s major political and trading partners. Milan Expo 2015 offers a global platform to promote UK international agendas and showcase British innovation, creativity and global leadership.

The UK’s participation theme for Milan Expo is Grown in Britain and Northern Ireland, led by UK Trade and Investment (UKTI) with support from 7 government departments.
