Webcast: Doing Business in the Isle of Man

Join us at 0900 on 15th November 2012 for a live webcast on doing business in the Isle of Man. http://www.whereyoucan.im/Resources/Doing-Business-in-the-Isle-of-Man-webcast.aspx

The world’s economic landscape has changed dramatically over the past few years. Amid continuing global uncertainty, the Isle of Man – like many other International Business Centres – needs to adapt fast to meet these new challenges.

The Island is already recognised for its well-regulated economy and competitive business
environment, as well as its agile and supportive Government which fosters strong private/public sector partnerships. Its successful, diversified economy consists of
established sectors such as financial services, maritime, tourism and precision manufacturing, through to new sectors like e-business, space, cleantech and aviation
services.

But as current global economic pressures show little sign of abating, what are the challenges facing businesses – both international and local – on the Isle of Man? How can
the Isle of Man work with other key economic partners, such as the UK, to help
entrepreneurs and businesses thrive and survive?

To discuss this, we’re bringing together Courtenay Heading, founder of cleantech company Bladon Jets, and an Inward Investment Adviser to the Isle of Man Government, and Chris Cummings, Chief Executive of TheCityUK, for a live webcast looking at the future of business in the Isle of Man. They’ll be joined by BBC presenter Roger Hearing.
