Workshop I Set up your business efficiently
Description
Set up your business efficiently: how the right structure can help you
Your small office has grown into a company with assets worth hundreds of millions of Czech crowns? Since entering the Czech market, your company has achieved steady turnover and now reports undistributed profits from previous years, which you have postponed because of the tax burden?
You have branches abroad and it is hard for you to monitor the flow of cash between companies or your tax obligations? You deal with the issue of reorganization and the related amount of tax burden, asset diversification or with succession issues in family businesses? Whether you are doing business locally or internationally, what you need right now is to streamline your corporate structure. At a workshop with Martin Houska, you will learn how a properly set up company structure will help make your business more efficient.
