Brand for Britain
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.OVER HALF of UK businesses believe a "corporate style" brand is needed for Britain to gain the recognition it deserves for innovation and to increase its competitive edge.
According to a new survey produced by the Chartered Institute of Marketing (CIM), in association with Marketing magazine, 45 per cent of those businesses polled believe that it is the British identity that helps position British businesses as competitive and strong.
However, 44 per cent of those who do think that a corporate brand would benefit Britain are unwilling to pay a business levy to promote the UK as a business location. More than 70 per cent are not willing to pay more than pounds 500.
