Building a Valuable, Exit-Ready Business Workshop

Every business owner exits eventually. The question is whether it will be on your terms.

26th August | 08:30 - 12:00

Barclays Campus, Glasgow, G5 8DP 

Join The CFO Centre and Barclays for a practical workshop on building a business that gives you value, options and freedom, not just today, but whenever you choose to step back

Exit isn't an event you brace for. It's a strategy you build towards, and the businesses that create the most choice are the ones that started long before anyone mentioned selling.

In partnership with:

Exit is not a destination. It's a strategy.


Most business owners spend years focusing on turnover, profit and the challenges of today. Far fewer spend time building a business that can provide the freedom, options and future they ultimately want.

Whether your future involves growth, succession, employee ownership, a management buyout, stepping back or an eventual sale, the value and readiness of your business will influence the choices available to you.
