Business creation as a result of restructuring processes

In a seminar organised for members of its Company Network, the European Foundation for the Improvement of Living and Working Conditions discussed the topic of business creation arising from restructuring processes. The seminar was held at the Foundation’s Conference Centre in Dublin, Ireland on 17-18 November 2005. Some six companies - JT Morgan (UK), Valnalón (Spain), Otto GmbH & Co KG (Germany), Kluwer & Compotex (Netherlands), Pomerania Shipyard Ltd (Poland) and France Télécom (France) - offered an insight into their restructuring procedures, which had led to the creation of start-up businesses and hence succeeded in offsetting negative employment effects. In an active and lively debate, 48 participants from a range of European countries exchanged experiences and knowledge of job creation initiatives as a result of business restructuring processes.status: publishe
