Agenda:
15:30 - 16:00 Arrival refeshments
16:00 - 17:30 Wider discussion - how small businesses experience legal problems in real life, and how they find their way through advice, support and legal services when issues arise.
Wider Discussion:
Legal problems are common for small businesses, but they often appear at moments of pressure. Many business owners are unsure:
- what help is available,
- which options they can trust, or
- how to act early to stop problems getting worse.
The event brings together small businesses, advisers and intermediaries, legal and non‑legal providers, and public sector stakeholders to reflect the full system that shapes outcomes for small businesses.
Rather than formal presentations, the event is designed around show‑and‑tell, discussion and practical pathways:
- what support exists,
- where it works well,
- where it breaks down, and
- how different parts of the system connect in practice.
