Gorvins to sponsor North West Family Business Conference

Stockport law firm, Gorvins Solicitors, is to sponsor the North West Family Business Conference, organised by TheBusinessDesk.com alongside co-sponsors Alexander and Co and Rathbones.

The half-day event will highlight the unique place that family businesses hold in the region’s economy through a series of round tables and a panel discussion.

Confirmed speakers include William Lees-Jones of family-owned Greater Manchester brewery JW Lees, and new owner of the Boddington’s brand, who will discuss tax changes for family businesses. Other topics of discussion on the day will include succession planning, nurturing talent, and the challenges of achieving work/life balance when lines are blurred between work and family life.

Corporate and Commercial Partner at Gorvins, Christian Mancier said of supporting the North West Family Business Conference:

“Here at Gorvins we have a proud track record of working with,  supporting and showcasing the family business sector. Whether that be through travelling up and down the country as part of an annual family business road trip and judging family business awards across the country, attending national conferences listening to the stories that are unique to every family business as well through to providing expert dedicated legal advice to family businesses of all shapes and sizes across the UK, we are always there to understand, support and champion the sector.

“As such it was only logical that we should team up with BusinessDesk to become one of the headline sponsors of the North West Family Business Conference 2025. BusinessDesk have an amazing track record of delivering great events with brilliant, relatable and thought provoking speakers where delegates take away so much from the events and as a result we can’t wait to see the buzz in the room for the North West Family Business Conference on the 8^th October.”
