Today marks EO Day, a celebration of the impact and potential of employee ownership across the UK. Following Lindsays’ EOT event in May, discussions highlighted the growing importance of Employee Ownership Trusts as a succession solution for Scottish businesses, tackling what has been described as a “ticking timebomb” while protecting legacy and supporting employees.

As Nicholas Howie notes: “Employee ownership isn’t a quick exit mechanism — it’s a long-term succession strategy that supports stability, fairness and continuity for both owners and employees.” This year’s EO Day theme, , reflects the role businesses and their people play in driving long-term success and impact.

If you are considering employee ownership as part of your succession planning, our team would be happy to discuss how an EOT could work for your business.
