Answer

As a diplomatic office of the Executive, the Bureau is responsible for building relations and promoting our region to targeted groups throughout North America. A key part of the Bureau’s work in this regard is to work closely with Invest NI in promoting Northern Ireland as a great place in which to invest and from which to trade, including in relation to access.
