I am the director of a corporate hospitality agency that has become insolvent.  I still have a lot of goodwill with my clients and am keen not to lose the book of contacts I have built up in this industry.  Can you tell me whether there is anything to stop me from forming a new company from the remains of my failed business and opening up again under a different name?
