About

Lawrence Summers, Ed Balls and Peter Sands in discussing what Brexit means for British and international business, and the future of globalization.

Brexit implies profound changes for British businesses: from how they trade, to how they are regulated and how they employ people. It also results in significant changes for European and international businesses, who will need to adjust their UK trade to the new post-Brexit order. Simultaneously, Brexit has raised fundamental questions about globalization and its consequences.

What are the key opportunities and challenges that Brexit poses for British and international businesses? How can they adjust and prepare for post-Brexit operations? Do we need to rethink globalization and the future of our globalized economy?
