Are you looking to expand your business across Europe? Why not start in Spain?
Spain is emerging as a prime destination for UK companies seeking to expand operations, invest strategically, and access favourable fiscal opportunities.
If your company is looking for a more favourable tax regime, Spain combines a strong business environment with some more tax-efficient locations, like the Canary Islands. With a special taxation, the fortunate isles can become the perfect base for growth in Europe.
The Spanish Chamber of Commerce in the UK, in collaboration with Benefactor EBF Consulting, invites you to an exclusive live webinar that will guide UK businesses through the essential considerations for expanding into Spain from corporate structures to tax residency planning.
In this session, Natasha Meah, CEO of EBF Consulting, and Coral Vázquez, Coordinator for Audiovisual and Digital Industries at PROEXCA, will guide you on how to make expansion simple, strategic, and profitable, with actionable guidance on:
- Why UK companies are choosing Spain for growth
- Strategic advantages of operating from the Canary Islands
- Smart corporate structuring and operational planning
- Cross-border tax and compliance essentials
- Key considerations for relocating directors and shareholders
Ideal for executives, business owners, CFOs, and finance leaders looking to grow internationally, unlock Spain’s business potential and plan successful expansions or relocations.
Following the presentation, attendees will have the opportunity to engage directly with the speakers and ask questions in both Spanish and English.
Date & Time: Thursday 30th April, 10:00 – 11:00 BST / 11:00 – 12:00 CEST
Platform: Zoom
This webinar is open to both Members and non-Members of the Spanish Chamber of Commerce in the UK.
