November 22, 2018. London – It came as no surprise that Brexit was the hot topic during a pre-Christmas gathering hosted by the CEIBS UK Chapter alumni this evening.

More than 20 chapter members (from CEIBS MBA, EMBA, FMBA as well as LBS Exchange programmes) and their guests met up in central London to hear former CEIBS Professor David de Cremer’s views on the topic of Brexit & Its Implications for Sino-UK Relationship.

After the talk, participants gathered in a pub to celebrate Christmas. CEIBS UK Chapter alumni are from countries including Spain, China, Canada, US, South Africa, the Philippines and more and their diversity is a great reflection of London as the global interconnector where people from all around the world meet. It is hard to imagine that this centre of gravity may drift away from London after Brexit. But three years ago, Brexit was even harder to imagine.

Let’s leave the worries to tomorrow for the moment and enjoy our sparkling start to the festive celebrations. Merry Fizzmas!
