It's the greatest crisis to face Europe since the Second World War. Although Britain has carefully avoided joining the euro the uncertainty and chaos threatening Europe's collective currency has profound implications for businesses in the Midlands: the eurozone accounts for more than half of our exports and a collapse could well take the region's economy with it.
Insider invites you to a special briefing on how things stand in Euroland and what the possible outcomes might be for your business. Our panel of experts will briefly explain how the euro reached this state of crisis, what the potential scenarios are, and what governments and markets must to do so stave off catastrophe.
More importantly our experts will explain what the implications for Midlands business will be, both immediately and long term, what the region's businesses must do to protect themselves, and uncover what opportunities might present themselves over the coming months.
