International Trade conference: hear from CBI President Lord Bilimoria and business leaders from Diageo, Honda and Ernst and Young.
At the CBI’s International Trade conference, we hear from Lord Karan Bilimoria and experts across industry to discuss how the UK can leverage opportunities coming out of a crisis, and the ways in which free trade agreements can be utilised for the benefit of UK business. The panel also explore how the services sector – which makes up nearly half of all UK trade exports – can be incorporated into more modern trade agreements. Finally, they discuss the importance of addressing market access issues in the pursuit of liberalising markets and the ways in which SMEs can penetrate the global market to scale up business.
