With the European Parliament’s recent vote ratifying the Trade and Co-operation Agreement between the EU and the UK, the focus now shifts to its implementation and at how co-operation can be built upon and extended in the coming years.
This inaugural EU-UK Forum annual conference will assess, amongst other things, perhaps the biggest challenge of all: re-building trust and realigning the relationship. It will convene political commentators and experts, policymakers, businesses, and civil society to discuss the nature of the relationship as it stands today and on the key areas for continued and future co-operation.
