Title: Running a small business
Proposer: Alison Lloyd
Type: Presentation
Duration: 90 mins
Description:
Many people would like to set up their own company, but unless you've done it before, it can be a little bewildering. Whether you're starting the next Google or just wish to sell your hand-made cat-hair jumpers on the internet, this talk has something for you: from different company structures to the sort of records and information you need to keep and the intricities of VAT, presented in a light, conversational manner and sprinkled with the odd, amusing example of how not to do things. Aspects of this talk will be specific to the UK, as that's where my experience lies, but much of it will be universal.
