31 December 2020 marks the end of the transitionary period relating to the UK’s departure from the EU. Whilst there remains significant uncertainty regarding what this means for NI businesses, it is essential that owner-managers of NI businesses have a clear understanding of the UK Exit process and the implications of the possible scenarios.

During the workshop, we will explore:

1. What to expect from 1 January 2021 – what has / has not been agreed to date;
2. How Brexit is likely to impact on NI businesses in terms of selling to and buying from businesses in the Republic of Ireland and other in other parts of EU;
3. Other implications of Brexit for NI businesses – movement of people, movement of money and administrative obligations.
4. What NI businesses need to do to prepare NOW for Brexit-related changes …and additional sources of support to prepare for Brexit.

This workshop is open to the entire business community in the Derry City and Strabane District Council area, especially those who either buy from or sell to the Republic of Ireland and / or other parts of the EU.

The workshop forms part of the DCSDC Business Innovation and Growth Programme which is part-funded by Invest NI and the European Regional Development Fund under the Investment for Growth and Jobs Northern Ireland [2014 – 2020] Programme.
