The AERL is delighted to invite you to a presentation by Sally Jones, Deputy Director of Trade Strategy at the Department for Business and Trade. The presentation will focus on the UK government’s new Trade Strategy which will be launched soon.
Against a challenging economic and geopolitical backdrop, members will learn how the UK intends to leverage international trade to drive economic growth and remove trade barriers, and how this is linked to other economic and industrial strategies on which the UK is working.
This event is kindly hosted by the government of Ontario, Canada.
