DESCRIPTION
June 23rd 2016 was a confusing day for the UK, as the results of the Brexit referendum came in. The debate around the pros and cons of Brexit were littered with inaccuracies, cherry-picked facts, and at times lies.

So now a few months on (and once we have collected our thoughts!) what WILL Brexit mean for our industry?

Will we in fact be much the same, or will pre-referendum apocalyptic headlines be realised?

Join HealthTech Women UK for an Oxford-Union style debate around the motion “This house believes Brexit will not affect health innovation” to hear from leaders in the field debating this contentious and confusing topic.
