Opportunities for Welsh Exporters ‘Post-Brexit’

Thursday, 27th October 2016.

Time: 8:30am (Breakfast and Registration); 9:00am (Panel Q&A)

Wales Exporters Association and the Bridgend Business Forum invite you to join them at their forthcoming Bridgend breakfast event.

Four months post the decision to leave the European Union, our panel of business experts will discuss the current state of play and focus on what they believe the opportunities are for Welsh exporters.

• How you can identify and make the most of the opportunities?
• What factors do you need to bear in mind and how can you work with these?

In a question and answer session, the expert business panel with a myriad of extensive, eclectic export experience will give you an insight into their views on the matters that you see most affecting your business post-referendum result.

Will Fleming, International Undergraduate Admissions Manager and Senior Lecturer at University of Wales, Trinity Saint David. Will is a member of the Chartered Institute of Marketing who has considerable experience in business having worked in both the public and private sectors. He has been involved with, and has an interest in, international marketing. And, as a Scotsman living in Wales whose discipline has a focus on how markets might work, he should bring an interesting perspective to the panel and the discussion – in particular, the implications either way of the final decision of the British public make and how businesses in Wales can respond to the outcomes.
