With differing sectoral and trade compositions between regions across the country, it is vitally important to consider regional vulnerabilities in the UK-EU negotiations. With Brexit fast approaching, this panel will discuss how we can overcome the challenges of Brexit at local level to ensure that the UK is politically, socially, as well as economically sustainable for future generations.聽\n Speakers Chair: Professor Simon Collinson, Deputy Pro-Vice-Chancellor for Regional Economic Engagement\n Speakers:\n Andrew Carter, Chief Executive, Centre for Cities聽 Professor Anand Menon, Director, UK in a Changing Europe Professor Raquel Ortega-Argil茅s, City-REDI Professor Anne Green, City-REDI Jeremy Lefroy MP, Member of the Exiting the EU Select Committee聽 Visit our Party Conference website for details of more fringe events\n Register your interest in attending our fringe events LOCATION:Room 101 - First floor - Library 麻豆精选 STATUS:CONFIRMED TRANSP:OPAQUE CLASS:PUBLIC END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
