Patron & Corporate Advocacy Breakfast: Mobility Matters - A Breakfast Conversation on Trade & Mobility with Ben Douglass-Smith, Deputy Director for Trade in Services, Department for Business, Innovation, Science & Trade

On 29 September, Patron and Corporate members were exclusively invited to attend the inaugural session of the Chamber's Advocacy Breakfast Series.

This session of our Advocacy Breakfast Series, Mobility Matters, brought together members and guests for a discussion on trade and mobility between the UK and France, with Ben Douglass-Smith, Deputy Director for Trade in Services at the Department for Business, Innovation, Science & Trade.

The discussion highlighted the importance of business mobility in supporting cross-border trade, particularly for services, and explored the practical challenges faced by companies operating between the UK and France. Participants considered how current mobility arrangements affect businesses and the importance of keeping mobility at the heart of the wider UK–EU trade relationship.

Thank you again to our speaker, Ben Douglass-Smith, for his incredible discussion and Kingsley Napley for hosting.
