According to local experts and reports, only a ‘short-term slow growth’ is expected after Brexit as Southampton is not heavily dependent on EU funding or exposed to EU markets. A Brexit opportunity is to develop a skilled workforce able to compete internationally. Of the sectors identified, those that were most promising are transport and dock-related jobs. The area has individual industrial strengths that can offer opportunity under Brexit.
