Wanted: European views for Brexit negotiations
The first phase of our Brexit Ambition project is bottom-up research across the European business community. This is an opportunity for your members and contacts to influence Brexit negotiations.
Our simple survey has been created in eight languages. Please share it with your members and contacts before the end of this month. We would like as many as possible to have their say on this important topic.

Hogan Lovells is Brexit Ambition partner
We’ll be working in partnership with Hogan Lovells, the global law firm on our Brexit Ambition initiative. The aim is to make sure that the UK’s Brexit negotiations include a European dimension. As the UK Government is calling on business organisations to provide input for negotiations, COBCOE is in a unique position to assist as the only Europe-wide British business network.
