Festival of Economics: Trade - Ten years since Brexit at Watershed

A event held at Watershed on Tuesday 17th November. The event starts at 11:45.


It is a decade since the Britain voted to leave the EU. What have economists learned—about trade and inflation, about tariffs and about industrial strategy—during this time? Is Brexit a dividend, or just a disaster? In this session, Soumaya Keynes and Ed Conway, both who have new books out that delve deep into trade will be joined by Mats Persson, who had a front row seat in Downing St during the Brexit negotiations.

Tickets are now available via Eventbrite. Discounts are available for groups (10+ people) and school bookings – get in touch via the Festival of Economics website.
