Catalan firms 'calm' in face of Brexit 'uncertainty'
ACCIÓ admits companies have "prepared very little" and experts recommend tailored contingency plans
With the UK on the verge of leaving the European Union, Catalan firms insist they are "calm" and "prepared" to face the changes that might result from Britain leaving the EU, but they also admit that they have yet to make any firm decisions regarding the situation.
Catalonia Trade & Investment (ACCIÓ) manager, Clàudia Danesi, warns that, with exceptions, "most firms have prepared very little," while those consulted by the Catalan News Agency say they have begun to make plans, but the "uncertainty" makes it hard.
Josep Maria Gascón, the founding member of Vitaes Talent, a consultancy specializing in business strategy, argues that each company has to come up with its own "tailored" solution to face the challenge that Brexit poses.
