# **Canada–UK Export Finance Partnership: Unlocking Global Clean Tech Opportunities**

##### **Tuesday, April 14 | 11am-12pm ET**

 

In 2025, CCC and the UK Export Credit Finance (UKEF) [signed an MoU to deepen the industrial partnerships between Canadian and UK companies](https://www.ccc.ca/en/announcements/ccc-signs-mou-with-ukef-to-help-diversify-canadas-exports/?hsLang=en) in aerospace, defence, public infrastructure, clean energy and information technology. This strategic partnership enables eligible Canadian exporters to access the benefits of both UKEF financing and Canada’s government-to-government (G2G) contracting model, while supporting cross-border collaboration, reducing risk, and enabling complex clean tech procurements.

As a follow-up to our previous session focused on the defence sector, **Wilson Pearce, Senior Director, Trade Strategy & Operations at CCC** and **Ozgur Kutay, Country-Head, Canada at UK Export Finance** will discuss more about this relationship and how it will enable Canadian exporters to participate in major international Clean Tech and SMART Utility programs projects.

**What You’ll Learn:**

- How CCC’s **G2G contracting model** strengthens Canadian exporters’ access to global markets.

- **Real-world examples** of successful UKEF-supported projects in the Clean Tech sector

- **When and how to leverage CCC and UKEF support** for international Clean Tech projects

- **Eligibility criteria, conditions, and key considerations** when applying for UKEF-backed financing
- A **step-by-step overview** of the UKEF application process
