So, The 42nd Business Show is almost upon us. Later this month, 25,000 people will gather at London’s ExCel for Europe’s biggest business event. The two-day show is free to attend. It includes speeches, exhibits, and masterclasses from the likes of Barclaycard and Google Digital Garage.
What’s more, Danbro will be there too! Be sure to check out stand 1234 to talk all things accountancy and to enter our buzz wire competition! It’s your chance to win EITHER a year’s FREE accounting (worth up to £1,000!), or a £250 Amazon voucher. Register for your free ticket, here.
Similarly, keynote speaker and former BBC Dragon, James Caan CBE, may find himself delivering a seminar to a more depleted audience than the packed houses he’s used to. The reason? His speech on ‘unleashing the dragon within you’ coincides with a talk by our very own Managing Director of Accountancy, Neil Ormesher.
Sure, James might well be one of the ‘five most influential bloggers on LinkedIn’, but are his world-renowned contemplations really worth missing industry leading insight on accounting technology and the future of digital taxation? Thought not. Plus, you can always catch Mr Caan at the same time the following day, anyway (Keynote Theatre 1, if you’re interested).
Neil’s seminar, meanwhile, takes place in Theatre 7 at 2.45pm on Wednesday 27th November. It will focus on digital taxation and the opportunities that accounting technology provides. He’ll be discussing what tools are available today, and the advantages they can bring, as well as where Danbro as a company see the future in terms of software, automation and speed of service. Neil will also touch on payroll, Making Tax Digital, and the benefits of cloud-based accounting.
“I’m especially looking forward to delivering a seminar on the future of digital taxation. I’ll be focusing on where we are now, the advantages of going digital, and what’s next for the market in general. I hope to shed some light on the benefits of digital accountancy. I’m grateful to PRYSM for allowing me to talk in detail about a subject I’m particularly passionate about.”

The Business Show: An All Star Line-Up
The selection of speakers at this year’s show is truly outstanding. From LAD Bible impresario, Alex Partridge, to BrewDog’s International Growth Director, Lisa Paton, the 2019 line-up is ‘unparalleled’. The one down side of having so many prestigious speakers, however, is the natural scheduling dilemma it can create for visitors. For instance, there’s the choice between Geordie Palmer’s talk on the fascinating rise of what3words, and Ginger Video Founder, Neil Ginger, on the effective use of video in sales and marketing. Both of which kick off at 11.45am on Day 1.Similarly, keynote speaker and former BBC Dragon, James Caan CBE, may find himself delivering a seminar to a more depleted audience than the packed houses he’s used to.

‘A fantastic opportunity to connect’
Speaking ahead of the event, Neil said: “The Business Show is a fantastic opportunity to meet and connect with other like-minded businesses. It’s so important to keep up-to-date with what’s going on in the market. We’re always open to learning new things and engaging with new people.”“I’m especially looking forward to delivering a seminar on the future of digital taxation.
