The UK is at a critical juncture both politically and economically. While challenges remain, there are also significant grounds for optimism as the UK seeks to engage positively with Europe and the rest of the world.
With all major UK political parties vying to be seen as the party of business, it is the time for UK businesses to seize this moment and make the case for policies that will help businesses grow and unlock international trade.
Coming to Trade Unlocked 2023 will ensure you have an understanding of the latest trends in international trade, including where the opportunities lie globally, while at the same time sharing insights, making new connections, and influencing policy decisions that directly impact your business.
