A law firm welcomed members of the Polish Business Hub to offer legal advice and solutions to protect their businesses over the short and long term.
Trethowans, which has offices in Bournemouth, Poole, Salisbury, Southampton and Winchester, hosted the “Business After Hours” event to help delegates understand some of the complex regulations that apply to English businesses.
Lucy Gleisner, a Partner in the Corporate Law team at Trethowans presented to members of the Polish Business Hub, outlining a few of the legalities businesses and individuals may face here in England. She also gave useful tips and advice geared towards protecting entrepreneurs to help avoid future problems, improve company operations, and save the business time and money.
The Polish Business Hub was set up five years ago in Bournemouth by Ewa Erdmann, the owner of a translation company, and forms a membership body of Polish businesses and entrepreneurs. The Hub encourages the fostering of good relationships and provides support in finding good business partners, as well as access to mentors and business advisers.
Lucy Gleisner commented: “Companies in England are subject to many laws and regulations – some of which can prove to be extremely complex. In fact, many of our international clients have admitted there are some laws they weren’t even aware existed. Therefore, no matter how hard you try to run a business, there can always be issues that arise along the way.
“Particularly stubborn areas of law relate to business expansion, relations between shareholders and succession planning.
“Business After Hours is a great way to share that knowledge and provide the business owners in attendance with key information. Fully armed with this information they can then concentrate on what they do best – meeting the needs of their customers.”
After Lucy’s presentation, delegates also had the chance to network and meet new contacts, exchange ideas as well as solutions and experiences.
