It may still have some relevÂ� ance to private companÂ�ies. 2╇ Who is a promoter? 1 The term promoter is one of fact, not of law. A promoter has been described as: ‘One who underÂ�takes to form a company with referÂ�ence to a given project and to set it going, and who takes the necesÂ�sary steps to accomÂ�plish that purpose’ (Cockburn CJ, Twycross v Grant (1877) 2 CPD 469).

Agency probÂ�lems arise when a person purports to make a contract for a company prior to incorÂ�porÂ�aÂ�tion because the prinÂ�cipal (the company) does not yet exist.
