Understanding Family Business Structures and Your Responsibilities Workshop - Boonah

Understanding Family Business Structures and Your Responsibilities Workshop

Join Kylie Wilson of Sparke Helmore Lawyers and Maddi Allen from BDO to learn about the different business structures common to agricultural enterprises and discuss the advantages and pitfalls of each structure. Business structures are not a one-size fits all approach and this workshop will explore the key considerations when discussing the options for your agribusiness. Beginning with the end in mind, this workshop will ask participants to identify their long-term goals for their agribusiness, and provide practical resources for you to determine your next steps.
