ANCA is one of nine organizations across the Northeast that currently make up the NETI partnership. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The nine-month-long fellowship, which <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/cdi.coop\/neti-fellowship-kickoff-retreat-gathers-business-thought-leaders\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">kicked off <\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">in February, will move fellows through a curriculum and projects that help each participant develop a strategic, region-specific model to support businesses and business owners in navigating the exit planning process and the employee ownership option.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A wave of baby boomer business owners are looking to retire in the next few years, threatening jobs and the stability of the economy within the communities their businesses serve. Organizations that provide services to business owners have great expertise in growing businesses but are not always equipped to answer questions or provide assistance for those looking for ways to exit a business. Employee ownership is a proven strategy to preserve critical businesses and jobs and provide wealth building opportunities for workers who are often left behind.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIn rural communities like ours, losing even small numbers of existing businesses has an outsize effect on our economy, so it is really important that we explore as many avenues as possible to keep that from happening,\u201d said Gold. \u201cIt is exciting to be part of the NETI fellowship where we can leverage the knowledge of so many different kinds of organizations and an immense brain trust of experiences. CITEC is looking forward to sharing the resources across the region, especially in the manufacturing sector.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI am grateful to have the opportunity to represent Central New York and the New York Small Business Development Centers in this inaugural cohort of the NETI Fellowship,\u201d said Griffin. \u201cSmall business owners across our region are nearing a time when education and the support ecosystem of NETI Fellowship partners will be critical for navigating the natural process of exit planning and ownership transition. Now is that pivotal moment where we can begin to change the tide of pointless business closures in an effort to preserve valuable jobs and our small business economic fabric.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kinyon said, \u201cBusiness succession is emerging as a key economic development and community issue. Preserving the meaningful amenities, experiences and skills that existing businesses provide and passing them to future generations is critical and valuable work. We are striving to identify the elements needed to plan, fund and implement successful transitions, which require extensive collaboration. We are pleased to be a part of the NETI fellowship, which will benefit our region through the broad knowledge and resources our shared network will bring together.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Other members of NETI Fellowship\u2019s inaugural cohort who represent organizations across New England and New York include: <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Martha Bentley, Cofounder of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/proprietor.app\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Proprietor LLC<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sandie Cataldo, Senior Manager of Economic Development at <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.northcentralmass.com\/affiliates-committees\/north-central-massachusetts-development-corporation\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">North Central Massachusetts Development Corporation<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">; <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nicolas Berthet-Garcia, Community Business Advisor at <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.northcentralmass.com\/affiliates-committees\/north-central-massachusetts-development-corporation\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">North Central Massachusetts Development Corporation<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tom\u00e1s Gonzalez, Director of Community &amp; Advocacy at <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/amplifylatinx.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Amplify Latinx<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">; William Fitzgerald, Lead Program Coordinator at <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/icic.org\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Initiative for a<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Competitive Inner City (ICIC);<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gwen Hart, VP Policy &amp; Director at the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/cweonline.org\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Center for Women &amp; Enterprise<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Christopher Hunter, Director of Advisory Services at <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/leaffund.org\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Local Enterprise Assistance Fund (LEAF)<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">; <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Benjamin Lamb, VP of Economic Development at <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/1berkshire.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1Berkshire<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">; <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ann McAlhany, Business Counselor at <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mainesbdc.org\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Maine SBDC<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> hosted by CEI; <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Brandon McDonald, Regional Hub Coordinator at<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nmdc.org\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Northern Maine Development Commission<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">; Elijah Miller, Director of Policy at the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.boston.gov\/government\/cabinets\/economic-opportunity-and-inclusion\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">City of Boston\u2019s Office of Economic Opportunity and Inclusion<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">; Nicole Obi, President and CEO of the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.becma.org\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Black Economic Council of Massachusetts<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">; Keyur Patel, Portfolio Manager at <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/bostonimpact.org\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Boston Impact Initiative<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">; Sara Powell, Program Director at <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/hannahgrimes.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hannah Grimes Center for Entrepreneurship<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">; and <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Elsabel Rincon, Business Development Lending Officer at<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mccinvest.org\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Mill Cities Community Investments<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">NETI is a partnership of organizations and lenders with deep experience in exit-planning and ownership transitions.
