Starting Up a Business? Start Here

31 July @ 10:30 am - 11:30 am

Free
Join this workshop to discover the fundamentals of starting a business – how to register, the costs involved, what to do first.

Thinking of starting your own business but unsure of actual steps involved?
What does it actually mean to be self employed? What business structure do you need and what are the options? What costs are involved? Where exactly do you start? How do you register a business and when?
Join this step-by-step workshop which will talk you through those initial steps of starting up, and the information you need to know to get going.

This workshop will cover:

  • Employed vs self employed – pros & cons
  • Steps involved in developing a business from idea to launch
  • Where to start
  • What you need to register, when and how
  • Potential costs
  • Q&A

We recommend that in addition to joining this information based workshop, startups also book onto two of our other workshops (these repeat every month);
> How to Start a Business – Let BIPC Expert Sandra Murphy, business advisor, guide you in expanding up your initial idea and develop it into a successful product/ service – taking you from idea to reality.
> Who Said Business Planning Had to be Hard? – Learn how to write a business plan in this comprehensive and easygoing workshop – no jargon, we promise.

Book these here on eventbrite.

This event will be held at BIPC, 1st floor of Jubilee library, Brighton.

Following the event, the BIPC will send you a feedback form which we would be grateful if you could complete to allow us to monitor the success of our events.
