The UAE-UK Business Council held its eleventh plenary meeting at the PwC Head Office in London.
Against the backdrop of the current General Election in the United Kingdom, The Business Council continued to review both the challenges and opportunities presented by the UK’s withdrawal from the European Union. The Business Council was keen to ensure that if a UK-GCC Free Trade Agreement (FTA) were to be pursued in the future that business was involved in the process from the start. With that in mind, the Business Council established an FTA Working Group.
In addition to discussing the activities being led by its seven sector Working Groups, the Business Council was interested to hear presentations on Cyber-Security and the UK-UAE Year of Creative Collaboration.
