Brexit Breakfast Briefing

Exploring the changing commercial relationship of Britain’s exit from the EU and how it might affect your digital transformation

It’s the end of the world as we know it but is this really such a bad thing?

Mark Skilton, Professor of Practice in Information Systems Management & Innovation at Warwick University and renowned digital expert doesn’t think so. As Great Britain prepares to leave the EU, European organisations on both sides of the channel are asking what this new relationship means for their business and how it’ll affect their push towards digital excellence.

With the UK long being a leader in digital innovation and organisations of all sizes currently undergoing digital transformation initiatives, the digital economy continues to grow – both on our shores and beyond. But how will Brexit affect this? Whilst Brexit is only a temporary issue, how will result in a new relationship for the UK and its local and wider economy? The continued rise of digital markets show no signs of slowing down, what are the impact and different scenarios for changes to your products and services and operating model?

How can you prepare your organisation for these turbulent times? With new legislation and regulation likely on the horizon, Mark explores how both Brexit and Digital are changing the commercial game.
