Leaving the EU will have a profound effect on business. Whatever the nature of the agreement that is secured, the way in which we do business with other EU countries is going to change.

The UK left the EU on January 31st. But the real changes for business are yet to come. The impact will be considerable, but by planning now, you can ensure that your business can cope. The Greater Birmingham and Solihull LEP, in association with Strong & Herd LLP, is hosting a practical and informative training session to help businesses understand the prevalent and underlying issues that will affect them and how to prepare.
