The webinars will guide businesses through the changes, which include how to import and export goods, the process for hiring people from the EU, and how to provide services in EU markets.
Thousands of businesses have attended previous EU Exit seminars and events that BEIS has run over the past two years. Feedback shows participants found the information useful, especially for clarifying areas they were already thinking about and raising awareness of actions not already on their radars. A digital roadshow held in 2019 was found useful by over three-quarters of those who attended.
The webinars are being run throughout October and have been tailored to suit specific industry sectors:
- Services and Investment 13 October
- Retail 14 October
- Automotive 14 October
- Metals and Materials 20 October
- Electronics and Machinery 21 October
- Consumer Goods 22 October
- Life Sciences 27 October
- Construction 28 October
- Aerospace 29 October
