WORKSHOP: The economic consequences of Brexit for the UK and EU: A losing game?

Location Hertie School of Governance, Forum B, Friedrichstraße 180, 10117 Berlin
Beginning 16.00  Ending 17.30

4:00 – 5:30 pm

The European Union is the largest trading partner for the United Kingdom and their economies are deeply intertwined. This brings up the question what the economic consequences of the Brexit will be. Some argue that the disentangling of trade relations will be close to impossible while others believe that this is the UK’s chance to break free. But will Britain indeed be in a position to design better trade agreements and can the EU as a result follow through with further integration steps towards a fully-fledged Economic Union? Or is it just a losing game for both?
