BBC Radio 4 - Money Box, Money Box Live: Small Businesses

What are the challenges and opportunities of setting up your own small business?

Small businesses represent as much as 99% of UK companies, according to government figures. They employ about half of the workforce and often contribute a vital service to local communities. The small business sector has been facing significant challenges -  higher inflation, more expensive business loans and uncertain markets. 
In this podcast, we look at both the challenges and the opportunities for small businesses. 

The experts on the panel are:

Charlotte Thomason, Head of Policy and Government Relations at Enterprise Nation, an organisation which helps advise small businesses on how to set-up and grow.
Andy Chamberlain, Director of Policy at IPSE - The Association of Independent Professionals and the Self-Employed.
Adnan Sajjad, an accountant specialising in helping small businesses.
