The Welsh export champion who rejects no-deal Brexit 'pessimism' and says it's time to seize the day

Alex Lovén runs Net World Sports in Wrexham and says it is 'naïve and short-sighted' to just look inside the borders of Europe

Alex Loven and David Lea-Wilson answer three Brexit questions

The owner of a rapidly expanding sports equipment firm that exports around the world can see no problems with Brexit and rejects the pessimism over a potential no-deal.

 

Alex Lovén, 31, runs Net World Sports in Wrexham, which sends football goals and other products to every corner of the planet and employs nearly 150 staff.

 

He believes the risks of a no-deal Brexit have been exaggerated and that a "visionary" Britain would thrive by trading more freely around the world.

 

 

He said: "If people look for problems, then they will find them. In my opinion, we will not be impacted by Brexit.

"It comes down to the basics, trade will always continue to take place, and this is something that will not radically change after Brexit.

 

"The world, like business, moves quickly we need to be nimble and dynamic.

 

 

"Change can be seen in a negative light, but on the other hand change with it brings new prospects and I firmly believe that leaving the EU will reap plenty of new opportunities that are out there ready to be grasped.

 

"If we are visionaries, then I can see no problem in going in this different direction.
