What do global SMEs need to know about Brexit?
How Brexit impacts SMEs’ business operations, especially in respect of internationalisation.
The official transitional period for Brexit will last until the end of this year, and trade negotiations are still underway. This situation creates uncertainty for companies of all sizes, and many questions, among other things, relating to the movements of goods and ensuring business operations, still remain open. How will global SMEs operate in the midst of this uncertainty? Does Brexit only cause harm or will some types of business become easier?
In the webinar, we will discuss the status and outlook of the trade negotiations from the point of view of SMEs.
