Welcome to London and Southern England region! And welcome to the BCCG’s London and Southern England Committee.

The BCCG’s London and Southern England Committee is here to help you explore market opportunities. Together with partners, we support British businesses in British-German trade or British businesses planning to expand to Germany. We are also supporting German businesses in London and the Southern England region. 

The Committee has particular expertise in financial and legal services but is equally at home working with government agencies, the German Embassy in London and the British Embassy in Berlin. Closely working with BCCG Headquarters in Berlin and the BCCG regional branches, we can offer valuable introductions and networking opportunities in Germany.

We want to enable even closer relationships and understanding between the UK and Germany. To support this goal, we organize in-person conferences followed by networking opportunities in the UK as well as webinars throughout the year. We are continuously expanding our social and networking events with like-minded partner organisations, such as our German Stammtisch and the annual Oktoberfest.

EXPERTISE Comprehensive market knowledge of the London and Southern England economic region, with an in-depth understanding of the local business culture, key industries, and regional market structures. Experienced in building and maintaining customer and partner networks, as well as identifying and developing business opportunities. Familiar with the specific characteristics of the UK market, cross-border collaboration, and the requirements of international business relationships. ATTRACTIVENESS It is also a region of economic superlatives. London is not only one of the top global financial, cultural and sporting centres, it is also home to half of the Fortune 500 European headquarters. The Southern England region is home to some of the best universities globally and a hotbed of innovation. STEEPED IN HISTORY London and Southern England is steeped in history from Stonehenge to Roman Londinium to Victorian England. It is a region with very strong and historical ties to Germany - the Hanseatic League’s Steelyard on the northern banks of the River Thames in the City of London is testament to this. SOUTHERN ENGLAND Southern England is one of Europe’s most economically significant regions, characterized by a diverse business landscape and a strong culture of innovation. Key industries include technology, financial services, life sciences, aerospace, and advanced manufacturing. With excellent infrastructure and close proximity to major international transport and trade hubs, the region offers highly attractive conditions for sustainable business growth and international partnerships.
