CBI Brexit expert to speak at BMF Members Day
Nicole
Sykes, Head of EU Negotiations at CBI (Confederation of British
Industry) will explore possible scenarios of business life beyond Brexit
at the BMF Members’ Day in September.
Nicole joined the CBI in 2015 to work on the organisation’s work
engaging the business community in the EU referendum, to ensure CBI
member companies were analysing their relationship with the European
Union. Since the referendum result, Nicole has been working to
co-ordinate the business community’s response to the vote to leave the
EU, across sectors and now leads the team with a particular focus on the
trading relationship, regulation, transition and the “no deal”
scenario. Before joining the CBI, Nicole worked on political campaigns.
John Newcomb, BMF CEO said: “I’m delighted that Nicole will be joining
us on Members’ Day. She has been involved in co-ordinating the CBI’s
response to Brexit both pre- and post the referendum result. I know
everyone will be keen to hear the CBI’s thoughts on a variety of
potential outcomes of the government’s current leave negotiations.”
Members’ Day 2017 will be held at Jurys Inn Hinckley Island Hotel in
Leicestershire. The Business Conference, “Building Beyond Brexit”, and
the BMF’s black-tie Awards Dinner both take place on 20th September.
The BMF’s annual Golf Tournament will be held on the previous day, 19
September, along with our other social activities, Quad Biking and Rifle
Shooting
he BMF thanks our Members’ Day headline sponsor, Encon Insulation, and
