With just 56 days to go until the UK’s new start outside of the EU single market and customs union, Business Secretary Alok Sharma is urging firms to sign up for the second phase of webinars.
So far, 3,000 people have attended government webinars to help them get ready for the end of the transition period, with 86% of those polled saying they would take action to prepare their business as a direct result of the sessions.
This second phase of webinars – which will run throughout this month – will cover key issues that could affect businesses in multiple sectors, including personal data, and regulations on manufactured goods.
The first phase of webinars, which ran throughout October, focused on specific sectors, such as retail, automotive and consumer goods.
