ConneXions Lunch - Navigating Changes to IHT & BPR

​The 2025 UK Budget brought significant changes to Inheritance Tax, and the decision to apply IHT to private company share ownership has left many business owners uncertain about what comes next for their estates and long-term plans. This lunch session is designed to cut through that uncertainty, bringing together experts from across the biz4Biz network to walk through what these changes actually mean in practice, and what options are available to you.

​You will hear from specialists covering practical methods for managing the new IHT landscape, along with approaches to legacy- and estate-planning that make sense for SME owners.

​Experts will present, from Barclays; George Hay Accounting; law firms and legacy planners — giving you the knowledge you need to navigate the changes.

​Whether you are thinking about succession, protecting what you have built, or simply trying to understand the implications of the changes, this is a valuable opportunity to get informed guidance in a relaxed setting.

​Hosted at Knebworth House, by biz4Biz, the event includes a buffet lunch and plenty of time to connect with business owners and professionals from across the region.
