NOTTINGHAM, UK — In April, the British Coatings Federation (BCF) and the British Adhesives and Sealants Association (BASA) joined forces to host a “Halfway to Brexit” seminar at the Doubletree by Hilton in Nottingham to highlight the economic and political implications of Brexit on the global coatings and adhesives industries. The seminar was attended by over 80 delegates, including representatives from both industries, the press and several government officials.
The seminar marked the halfway point to Brexit, and with the October deadline for an agreement between the UK and the EU looming, both speakers and attendees highlighted the need to have a good deal for industry, which works both for the UK and European business community.
