About Ben 

Thrive Lounge is the concept of Ben Clay, a Chartered Financial Adviser and Director of Clay Wealth Management.  

As a business owner himself, Ben recognises how precious time is.  Often, while the business may be functioning well, key areas can be overlooked, and it is these areas that Thrive Lounge will bring to the forefront to ensure all your hard work will result in you achieving your personal aspirations.

With over 20 years’ experience in financial services, Ben has built strong professional relationships and recognises the value these can bring to his clients and their associates and how beneficial learning from other’s experiences can be.

Themes

Thrive Lounge provides highly relevant business content with minimal effort required from its members.

Speakers will provide enough information for you to identify the need in your business, but they won’t overwhelm you with the detail – you can find that out later - leaving time for you to benefit from socialising with the other members.

Themes include:

  • Raising capital tax efficiently

  • Acquiring business premises

  • Expansion and acquisition

  • Maximising return from cash funds

  • Tax-efficient capital extraction

  • Preparing for future sale

  • Passing on to the next generation

  • Exiting your business

  • Post-sale lifestyle planning

 

“Thrive Lounge is all about creating that spark in business owners’ minds by highlighting things they haven’t ever considered that will make a real difference to their success. They’ll leave knowing what to focus on as a priority and where to go for help.”
— Ben Clay, Founder
