    Description

    The UK fashion industry is a great supporter and proponent of international students, yet when it comes to starting a career or a business as a foreign national, things get less straightforward. In light of Brexit and the uncertainties facing the creative industries and UK business, we will debate the issues around visas and sponsorships, highlight the processes involved and look at the benefits of hiring international candidates.

    In this FYI The House Party talk, our expert industry speakers will discuss:

    What is a visa? Why do you need one?

    What is a sponsorship license and how do you apply for one?

    What makes a business sponsor an international candidate?

    How can you set up a UK-based business as a foreign national?

    How will Brexit affect the opportunities in UK fashion?

    Speakers include

    Maria Patsalos, Partner, Mishcon de Reya @mishcon_de_reya

    Ovelia Transtoto, Designer @oveliatranstoto

    Ellie Lancaster-Smith, HR Manager EMEA, VICE Media @vice

    Maria Tkachenko, Womenswear Account Manager, SANE Communications @maria_tk
