SKOLKOVO International Club is a series of private discussions for anyone doing international business.
All the events are held in English and attended by a limited number of participants, while the list of guests is moderated with the utmost care and circumspection, so that all the attendants enjoy the time spent together.
We are proud to announce that the third meeting will be held by Luke Conner, Head of the British Club and M&A in Russia, litigation and arbitration expert. Luke will dissect the key aspects of Brexit, talk about the consequences of the decision to leave the EU, and also about the opportunities and risks for Russian and international businesses.
Brexit is one of the most topical issues for global business. The final decision on Great Britain’s departure from the European Union will affect trading relations, share quotations, the alignment of political forces and much else besides. Furthermore, it is clear that Brexit will affect the interests of the business community as a whole, and not only British companies.
