Dear Member, 

This week we are continuing with our GDPR tip, focusing on 'Consent and transparency when gathering data'.

We also have an article to help you prepare your business and employees for an ageing workforce  as well as the most up to date information on the Government's Brexit loan scheme. 

A key focus for government and SFA alike is regional growth and development, we look at the new report from the ERSI on second tier cities.

Don't forget to send us your Big News for Small Business and be given the opportunity to feature in our Better Business magazine.

This is your last chance to book a place at Business Connect, make sure to book your place today.  

As always, we’d love to hear from you about any queries you may have, issues you wish to have raised with Government or other stakeholders and your ideas on how we can improve the business environment for us all. Please contact me on tel: 01 605 1602 or e-mail: sven@sfa.ie or tweet: @SFA_Irl or visit: www.sfa.ie.

Kind regards, 

Sven Spollen-Behrens

SFA Director
