The shift to a new phase of life can be a difficult transition for anyone but it can be unexpectedly tough for business owners.
Our session will look at issues around preparing for life after work with a focus on the particular challenges facing exiting business owners. Suddenly finding your bank balance has more zeros than you’d ever expected to see can be overwhelming. By working with people who have sold their business, inherited a large sum, or simply built value in their retirement assets, Chadwicks have developed an approach that makes sense of amounts that have the potential to change not just your life but those of generations to come.
We’ll start with some investment theory and how we at Chadwicks combine this with our behavioural expertise to create multigenerational solutions that mean you can stop losing sleep over money and start concentrating on the important things in life.
Elizabeth Field, Principal Associate at Mills and Reeve, will discuss the advantages of setting up a Family Investment Company to safeguard assets across generations. Daniel Harvey will take a look at the ecosystem Chadwicks are creating to link experienced business people to exciting scale-up businesses. We’ll finish with a short introduction to the support the Norfolk Community Foundation can provide to philanthropic giving.
Please note that there are two masterclasses on the day available for sign up:
8:15-10:30
12:15-2:30
The Masterclass will last 2 hours with questions. It will be of interest to people who have sold, or are thinking of selling, a business or who have benefited from a large inheritance and their advisers.
Refreshments will be available.
At our 2019 masterclasses we are also encouraging attendees to make a donation to our sponsored charity. There is no charge for the Masterclass, but you may like to consider a donation of £20 to the Ormiston Families MPower projects that supports parents who have had a child taken into care. In 2018 we were chuffed to hand over a cheque for more than £6,000, more than half of which had been raised from these Masterclasses.
The linked article below gives an outline of the incredible work of Alison and everyone at Ormiston Families on the project;

The Big Debate 2026 – Economy, Innovation and Infrastructure for Norfolk
The Big Debate returns for 2026! We had originally planned to focus on devolution and the proposed Mayoral Combined County Authority, but with that process now delayed by two years, we’ve taken a different approach.
We asked our members what they actually want to debate right now, and the response was clear: let’s talk about the issues affecting Norfolk businesses right now.
Join us at The Forum, Norwich, for a BBC Question Time–style debate where business leaders, MPs, and local influencers will tackle the challenges and opportunities facing our region’s economy.
This is your opportunity to be part of the conversation that will shape the future of Norfolk business.
The Big Debate themes – What our members want to discuss
We asked our members what matters most to them, and three clear priorities emerged:
The Economy and Taxation – How do current economic conditions and tax policies affect Norfolk businesses? What needs to change to support growth, investment, and competitiveness in our region?
Workforce and AI – How do we build the talent pipeline Norfolk needs while navigating rapid technological change? What does the rise of AI mean for jobs, skills, and the future of work in our county?
Norfolk’s Infrastructure – From transport links to digital connectivity, what infrastructure investments will unlock economic potential across Norfolk? How do we ensure the county isn’t left behind?
What’s New for The Big Debate 2026
We are currently finalising our debating panel, with invites extended to: MPs representing Norfolk constituencies, business leaders and sector experts driving growth and innovation in our region, and local influencers and decision-makers shaping Norfolk’s future
What to expect
Engaging debate across three topics that directly impact your business, direct dialogue with the people who can influence change, and the chance to connect with other business leaders and decision-makers who share your concerns about Norfolk’s future.
The Big Debate 2026 is your opportunity to have your voice heard on the issues that will define Norfolk’s economic trajectory. Spaces are limited, so book now to secure your place.
