Taking Back Control? The UK, Europe and Global Business in the Trumpian Post-Globalization Era (Networking & Masterclass)
Geopolitics has moved from background noise to a structuring force of international business decisions. This masterclass explores how Brexit, power politics and economic fragmentation are reshaping the UK’s relationship with Europe and the global economy — and what this means for business leaders.
What to Expect:
Understand how geopolitics, trade policy and regulation are now used as instruments of state power.
Learn how Brexit and post-globalization dynamics are reshaping cross-border business between the UK and Europe.
Gain actionable insights to read geopolitical signals, manage political risk, and adapt strategy in a fragmented global economy.
Highlights of the Masterclass:
> A high-level geopolitical masterclass exploring the impact of Brexit, power politics and post-globalization on international business strategy.
> Action-oriented insights on managing political risk, reading geopolitical signals, and navigating fragmented markets.
> Led by Prof. Aurélien Colson, PhD MBA, Co-Academic Director of the ESSEC Institute for Geopolitics & Business.
