HKTDC Research Seminar “The UK’s Post-Brexit E-Commerce Market” (Webinar)
Cantonese (No simultaneous interpretation service provided)
The Covid‑19 outbreak has driven many struggling businesses to embrace e‑commerce as their key sales channel in their domestic markets and many overseas territories. The UK, the world’s third-largest e-commerce market, has long been a prime target in its own right, as well as serving as a gateway to the EU’s single market for Hong Kong exporters. In a bid to better understand the huge potential of this key European destination, this webinar will detail the UK’s dynamic e-commerce landscape, while also providing key insights into securing post-Brexit success in this competitive market.
