Keeping It Local: Options and Opportunities for Business Succession in the Capital Region

Ignite supports businesses, entrepreneurs, and communities at every stage of their growth and development. Keeping It Local: Options and Opportunities for Business Succession in the Capital Region explores an important question for local business owners: what comes next when it’s time to step away from the business you’ve built? 

This free, 90-minute virtual session will take place on November 25th, from 11:00 am to 12:30 pm. As business owners across the Capital Region begin thinking about retirement or their next chapter, planning for ownership transitions is an important part of keeping local businesses and communities thriving. Selling to a local buyer can help preserve jobs, maintain services, and keep businesses rooted in the communities they serve. 

The session will explore the options available to business owners considering succession, highlight the benefits of selling locally, and introduce key considerations for those who may be thinking about a transition in the next three to ten years. Attendees will also learn about resources and practical starting points to help them explore their options, even if they haven’t begun planning yet. 

Whether you’re thinking about retirement, exploring what the next chapter might look like, or simply curious about your options, this session offers a practical starting point for understanding business succession and the opportunities available right here in the Capital Region. 

You don’t need to have a plan yet. You just need a place to start. Join us to explore your options and learn more. Register for the free webinar here!
