The spotlight was put on the latest developments in the world of business at a special seminar staged in Carmarthen.
The event was organised by Clay Shaw Butler, chartered accountants and business consultants of Carmarthen and Porthcawl.
“There was an excellent turnout, with a range of different businesses represented and the topics covered were very informative,” said Clay Shaw Butler consultant Ann Thomas.
One section of the seminar focussed on the latest changes to the Sage accounting software, a package which provides valuable support to many businesses.
Ann said: “Keeping up-to-date with the latest business news and changes is vital for any business in today’s economic climate, so as a firm of chartered accountants and business consultants we felt it was important to bring people up to speed.
“The event was not limited to our customers and we were delighted to welcome businesses who had travelled from far and wide to attend the seminar.”
The seminar was held at the Cothi Suite at the Halliwell Centre at the University of Wales Trinity St David in Carmarthen.
Chris Ellis, of One Life Financial Planning, talked about current and imminent changes in pensions and NEST (National Employment Savings Trust).
Finally, Donna Purchase, of Red Kite Law discussed the ever-changing world of employment law and, in particular, the changes for employers.
