STEVE RICHARDS, SENIOR ADVISER
The UK vote to leave the European Union has caused economic
uncertainty and political turmoil. Whilst for many it is business as
usual until Article 50 is formally enacted, it is very unclear what new
arrangement with the EU will be put in its place. Will it be EEA Plus;
EEA Minus or a straight WTO deal?
Hanover has established an advisory team designed to
help businesses cut through the noise and confusion. Our
senior experts, based across our offices in London and
Brussels, will help you effectively navigate developments
on both sides of the channel and protect your bottom line.
Support will include senior strategic counsel,
timely intelligence, reputation and crisis management,
change management, corporate communications and
internal communications.
Our team has extensive political and media experience
across the UK and EU, and is able to draw upon the
expertise of the Ecosystem, our pan-European
network of consultancies.
