Exit Planning — Succession & Sale Readiness
How ready is your business for life after you?
Over the next decade, hundreds of thousands of UK businesses will need to transition as the baby boomer generation retires. For many owners, this means selling. For others, it means passing the business on to the next generation or leadership team. Whatever the route, planning early makes all the difference.
This interactive workshop will help you understand your options, avoid common pitfalls, and prepare your business for a smooth, profitable, and stress-free transition.
What we’ll cover
- Routes to exit — including trade sale, management buyout, and employee ownership
- Tax and legal considerations — what’s changed recently and how it impacts business owners
- Practical steps — from forecasts and key contracts to due diligence and disclosure
- Succession planning — how to prepare family members or senior staff to take over, and ensure your legacy lives on
- Avoiding surprises — timing, valuation, and how to keep as much of the proceeds as possible
Who should attend?
- Business owners thinking about selling in the next 2–10 years
- Family businesses considering passing the reins to the next generation
- Leaders who want to understand the process and prepare early
Why attend?
Whether your future lies in selling your business or keeping it in the family, this event will give you the clarity and confidence to take the next step.
