On Thursday 23 June 2016, the United Kingdom held a referendum to gauge support for

&nbsp;

51.9% voted to leave the EU, 48.1%, voted to remain in the EU.

&nbsp;

The detailed results showed that England (but not London) and Wales voted to leave while the majority in Scotland and Northern Ireland, as well as 96% of Gibraltar, voted to remain. The referendum is only advisory, hence a decision to invoke Article 50 of the Treaty on European Union to leave the EU has to be formally taken by the British Parliament. In the meantime, a range of views and analysis have started to emerge around Brexit. While consequences for British and global politics and economics have also arisen.

&nbsp;

Asia Centre will convene a roundtable to take stock of these emerging views and discuss the implications one month following the historic referendum. A panel of academics will provide a multi-dimensional view of the Brexit in a roundtable setting where both panelists and participants will try to make sense of the larger implications for the United Kingdom, Europe and Asia.
