A year on from the triggering of Article 50, the Federation is hosting a major conference on Brexit and the creative industries. The symposium will provide business-critical insight into the current state of the negotiations, discuss challenges and opportunities for the sector after the UK's exit from the EU and offer practical advice on future-proofing your organisation.
The afternoon will feature a diverse programme including interviews, discussions and Q&As with senior politicians, key advisors, and of course creative industry leaders from across the UK and Europe. It will conclude with a drinks reception giving the opportunity to meet, network and discuss the day’s topics.
