Ten years on: the future of UK-EU relations

Ten years on: the future of UK-EU relations 

The world has changed dramatically since the UK voted to leave the European Union on 23 June 2016. 

To mark the tenth anniversary of the Brexit referendum, Flint Global and UK in a Changing Europe (along with IE University in Brussels) are convening two events in London and Brussels to bring together leading policymakers, experts and commentators from across the UK and Europe to discuss the future of the UK–EU relationship.

Through a series of panel discussions, the events will reflect on the political, economic and geopolitical legacy of Brexit, assess the prospects for the UK–EU reset, and explore the future of European security and cooperation.
