About the event

Following the historic EU referendum result, this early morning breakfast fringe event will focus on what the UK now needs to do to form new trade relationships with the EU and across the globe. A distinguished panel will examine what the UK government must consider in the path to determining our own trade policy with crucial insights on the potential implications for the agricultural sector as well as the broader business and legal implications.

Refreshments will be provided, including porridge served with Lyle’s golden syrup.
