Setting up a business can be a minefield, what data do you need to keep? what systems should you set up (e.g. Xero)? and what do you need to to comply with regulations?
There is also the question of how to finance the business, can you utilise seed funding, are there any tax reliefs and can you utilise R&D tax credits?
Once you are all set up, how can you grow your business? How should you setup your management accounts, and how best should you budget and forecast?
Once you have a strong team, how can you incentivise them with an EMI/Equity Scheme? and how do you obtain growth funding to take your business to the next level?
When is the best time to acquire a business and what due diligence do you need to perform?
What is your growth strategy and what do you need to consider when growing your business?
What are your options when exiting the business? Should you look at an MBO, EOT or PE?
What do you need to consider with regards to tax structuring on exit and what is required? Also, what should you do with your post exit wealth management?
