About half of privately-held businesses in the United States are owned by entrepreneurs over age 55. As those business owners look to retire over the next decade, 12 million businesses are expected to change hands. What can we learn from some of Rochester’s oldest family businesses about planning for leadership and ownership transitions? Join us for a discussion with Genevieve Norris-Brown (6th generation at Seabreeze, founded 1879), Trevor Holly (4th generation at Sage Rutty, founded 1915) Jack Doyle (6th generation at Doyle Security, founded 1919), and Chelsea Conway (4th generation at Conway Beam, founded 1951). Moderated by Rotarian Andrew Brady (2nd generation at The XLR8 Team, founded 1996).
