Let’s Touch Base: Get Your Taxes Right as a Small Business Owner

Running a business gives you freedom, but it also comes with responsibilities.

When it comes to taxes, most entrepreneurs know the basics: the quarterly VAT and annual income tax.

But the real question is:

Are you handling them in a way that actually supports your business?

This BASE event, part of the Let’s Touch Base series, is designed to give you clarity on what you need to do and how to do it properly.

We keep our sessions intentionally small, with a maximum of 25 participants, to allow for real interaction and practical discussion.
