## Summary

The contract period extends from 18 November 2016 to 17 January 2017, encompassing targeted assistance for investment identification in the British Overseas Territories, the United Kingdom, and other global locations.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in consultancy for foreign investments, particularly those with a focus on emerging markets and multinational enterprises.
