Get your business ready for Brexit

Get ready for Brexit logo

Supporting businesses to prepare for Brexit on 31 October is our top priority. We want businesses to prepare so that they can take advantage of the opportunities that lie ahead. Some businesses will have specific questions and concerns, but the whole of government is stepping up a gear and increasing the pace of our preparations as we get ready to leave on 31 October.

Sign up for news and events

We hold regular Business Readiness Forums for trade associations, business representative bodies and business intermediaries. Experts across government speak about the areas that will affect businesses and how best to prepare for Brexit. These forums are available online through WebEx and are held at the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy in London. A weekly bulletin follows providing the latest guidance to signpost your networks to with resources to help businesses prepare for Brexit.

A series of regional events for individual businesses will be commencing shortly, further information will follow.

For further details on how trade associations and business intermediaries can register for the forum or to subscribe to the bulletin email sed@beis.gov.uk.
