With the U.S. election outcome now decided, businesses worldwide are grappling with uncertainty over the broad-reaching implications of new U.S. policies. While changes to U.S. immigration policy will certainly impact talent mobility, this is only one part of the equation. Shifts in U.S. trade and foreign policy — including tariffs, supply chain disruptions, and broader economic effects — will present both challenges and opportunities for businesses across the globe.
Join us for an exclusive webcast where we will examine the full scope of these policy shifts, from immigration to trade and economic strategy. We will explore how these changes will affect your ability to hire and relocate talent, as well as how broader economic and trade policies will impact supply chains, business growth, and workforce planning.
Key topics will include:
- Economic Impacts of U.S. Trade Policies: How new tariffs and trade policies — particularly those under the new Trump administration — may reshape global supply chains, business operations, and economic growth, and how you can prepare.
- Tougher Borders: The effects of more restrictive immigration policies in key global markets, and how to adapt your strategy for cross-border talent mobility.
- Alternative Immigration Pathways: Immigration options in top business hubs like Canada, Australia, and Europe, and how to diversify your talent pipeline.
- Corporate Strategies for Multinational Operations: How to develop a flexible plan that integrates immigration strategies to support workforce mobility, business expansion, and supply chain continuity.
- Post-Election Scenario Planning: What businesses can do now to prepare for the long-term impact of these policy changes on their operations and global growth.
