Trade and Investment Department

In reply to the Hon. Z.L. BETTISON (Ramsay) (29 July 2021). (Estimates Committee B)

The Hon. S.J.R. PATTERSON (Morphett—Minister for Trade and Investment): I have been advised the following:

In 2020-21, around 2400 individual companies had direct client engagement with the Department for Trade and Investment (DTI).

This includes companies where direct interaction has been reported in the DTI CRM over the year, companies involved in DTI exporter development programs and company clients of the TradeStart program who have engaged with TradeStart officers this year and participants in online B2B matching programs.
