Nine years on from the historic Brexit vote things are very different in the UK and EU, and in this webinar we take stock on how diverged the key sustainability regulations affecting tech firms, product manufacturers and infrastructure providers are. Specifically the webinar will go in to detail on at ESG disclosures, sustainable supply chains, circularity and climate, and look at the overall direction of travel with the UK trying to ‘reset’ relations with Brussels and the EU becoming more interventionist across many files. 

Agenda:  

  • 11:00 – 11:05 Welcome and introductions
  • 11:05 – 11:15 A high level overview of the latest politics in the UK-EU relationship
  • 11:15 – 11:45 Presentation on where divergence has happened, passively or actively
  • 11:45 – 12:05 Presentation on how firms have approached dual compliance, from a manufacturer perspective
  • 12:05 – 12:15 The UK/EU relationship going forward under Labour
  • 12:15 – 12:30 Member Q&A
