Global Britain: what's the plan?

Institute for Government

Leaving the EU gives the UK an opportunity to act with greater freedom on the world stage. But how should this freedom be used? This event will explore the government's priorities for a 'Global Britain' and how the new Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office will deliver. It will also explore what the government's trade strategy is and how it will fit into the government's broader foreign policy aims. Panellists: Rt Hon Greg Hands MP, Minister of State for International Trade Stephen Adams, Senior Director at Global Counsel Professor Ian Walmsley, Provost at Imperial College London Georgina Wright, Senior Researcher at the Institute for Government Chaired by Dr Hannah White, Deputy Director of the Institute for Government. This event was kindly supported by Imperial College London and Wellcome Trust.
