SWEDISH CHAMBERS INTERNATIONAL  network offers: 

54 days of a sovereign United Kingdom - what now for the UK and the EU?

A webinar focused on the impact on businesses and Q&A with experts.

54 days of a sovereign United Kingdom – what now for the UK and the EU? After years of debating, delaying and discussing, Britain finally left the European with a trade deal on 1 January 2021. But what now? What is next for the United Kingdom, and where is it heading? In the aftermath of a hard pandemic-hit and Brexit infused recession, what are we to make of its new relationship to its greatest neighbour, the European Union? This, against a backdrop of a United States in turbulence, and years of distancing itself, and a rising China. How do we emerge stronger?

Andrew Bowie, MP and Vice Chairman of the Conservative Party, and Chair of the British-Swedish All-Party Parliamentary Group
