How to ensure the UK has the best tax system for entrepreneurs

Entrepreneurs’ Drinks are virtual events with our Advisers. Guests will be sent a bottle of wine (or alternative), supplied by The Wine List, so we can have a glass while sharing our thoughts on how to make the UK the best place in the world to start and grow a business.

This event is in partnership with  Mishcon de Reya. Over multiple years we have worked with them on The Leap – an active network and programme of events for some of the most exciting fast-growth businesses in the UK.
