About this Event
Starting or running a business is exciting, but there is often a lot happening behind the scenes that many owners do not realise until later. The things that are easiest to overlook in the early stages are often the ones that can make the biggest difference to how smoothly a business operates. From terms and conditions and leases to financial systems, technology, and new tools like AI, having the right foundations in place can save time, reduce risk, and set your business up for long-term success.
This seminar is designed to shine a light on the important things business owners sometimes miss and explain why they matter. Whether you are thinking about starting a business, buying an existing one, or already running your own, you will gain practical insights into the key areas that help businesses run smarter and stronger.
You will hear from four experienced professionals who work with businesses every day and understand the real challenges owners face.
Chris Connell, commercial law expert from Pier Law, will talk about the legal foundations every business should have in place. This includes choosing the right structure, having clear terms and conditions, understanding leases, and making sure your contracts properly protect your business.
Daniel Lechner-Page, IT consultant from ITstuffed, will cover the technology that supports modern businesses, including cybersecurity, protecting your data, and ensuring your systems are secure and reliable.
Tsarina Dellow, accountant from Trailblazer Accountants, will share practical insights on understanding your numbers, managing cash flow, and setting up financial systems that help your business grow with confidence.
Andrew Hamilton, AI consultant from Progentic, will explore how artificial intelligence is becoming a powerful tool for businesses and how owners can use it to improve efficiency, streamline processes, and stay ahead of the curve.
This is a great opportunity to learn from experts across legal, technology, accounting, and AI, ask questions, and pick up practical tips you can apply straight away. Whether you are just getting started or looking to strengthen the foundations of an existing business, you will walk away with valuable knowledge to help your business thrive.
