Strategies for success in today’s economy will be one of the featured topics at a free business resource seminar and expo at the Ken Miller Recreation Center on Wednesday, September 7. The seminar will also offer a variety of approaches and techniques that can help position businesses in Torrance and the surrounding areas for success, capitalize on billions of dollars in tax credits, and minimize the frustration of taxation.

 

Jerome E. Horton, Member, Third District, California State Board of Equalization (BOE) will host the event in collaboration with State Senator Isadore Hall III, Assemblymember David Hadley, and Los Angeles County Assessor Jeffrey Prang. The City of Torrance and the Torrance Area Chamber of Commerce will co-sponsor the event.

 

Representatives from the BOE, the Employment Development Department, the Franchise Tax Board, Internal Revenue Service, Small Business Administration, and the Small Business Development Center will be available to answer questions on topics such as basic sales and use tax, forms of ownership, and recordkeeping.

 

“My goals are to help California businesses capitalize on available tax credits and to offer strategies and solutions that will help local businesses thrive domestically and internationally,” Horton said.
