Agenda/content:
The day was made up of a variety of presentations and by a variety of speakers and a number of networking opportunities. I took a number of our guides from 2018 and 2019 as giveaways for attendees and as an encouragement for them to consider joining the Forum. Tony and I recorded a video that has now been released on his website and can be seen here, this can be seen by small business owners, our members and attendees from the day. I will attach the Micro Biz matters day welcome pack to this containing the full details of the day. |

Action:
Tony and I discussed late payment and we decided to try and secure a Private Member’s Bill for #PayIn30Days. We will campaign and lobby through the Policy Mogul platform. We have informed all the small business membership organisations of this decision and expect their support. I will take a lead in trying to get all the small business membership organisations to show a united front on this issue. |
