Notice Title

Delivery of the UK - Southeast Asia Tech Week 2023

Notice Description

The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office ("the Authority") is seeking to appoint a delivery partner to manage and deliver our inaugural UK - Southeast Asia Tech Week 2023. The aim of this project is to foster new business partnerships between UK and Southeast Asian public and private sector organisations through a week-long series of engagements in two priority markets. It is also designed to create opportunities for networking and knowledge-sharing between public and private sector stakeholders across the UK and Southeast Asia, whilst also supporting the implementation of innovation-friendly policies that promote open and inclusive digital ecosystems and digital trade across the region. Building on the UK's formalised status as an ASEAN Dialogue Partner - the bloc's eleventh and first since 1996 - the UK and ASEAN committed to deepening collaboration on the digital economy through our newly-established ASEAN-UK Digital Innovation Partnership (DIP). Launched in September 2021, our digital partnership aims to unlock the vast potential held across our most innovative and cutting-edge public and private sector bodies - including by connecting and fostering new business partnerships. Our vision is to achieve these objectives through greater collaboration across three core pillars: (a) Digital Economy Business Partnerships; (b) Digital Policy, Regulation and Standards; and (c) Digital Transformation and Digital Inclusion. The UK and ASEAN have already delivered a range of initiatives and activities under each pillar - including delivering our first-ever ASEAN-UK Digital Business Showcase which brought together innovative tech companies to solve complex organisational challenges; creating new opportunities for dialogue on digital standards and policy between leading businesses and government bodies; and leading our largest-ever delegation of Southeast Asian tech companies to London Tech Week 2022. Our next objective is to deliver our first-ever UK-Southeast Asia Tech Week - one of our flagship projects under the DIP this year (2022 - 2023). Full details of the requirement and instructions on how to apply are provided in the attachments area. Please be reminded to direct all communication and your proposal submission to both contacts provided in the Covering Letter
