Join the DeKalb Chamber for a full recap of the 2024 Georgia General Assembly legislative session.
Nancy Palmer, Vice President of Government Affairs with the Georgia Chamber of Commerce, will share highlights of which pieces of legislation successfully passed both chambers of the legislature as it relates to business, workforce development, and education. Money to expand business, grant money, bank loans, business credit, personal credit, events, virtual events, finding money, grow business, start a business. As we move into 2024, what are the experts saying about the future of the office market? In this constantly evolving landscape we will discuss some of the myths and the realities about the market. It is not uncommon for Business Owners to be so consumed with the day-to-day responsibilities of operating the Business, including having proper insurance for tangible assets like Equipment and Buildings, that insuring two of their most important assets get neglected—Managerial Experience and Skill. According to Cornell University, 40% of Small Businesses passes to the second generation and 13% passes to the third generation. Finally, only 4% passes to the fourth generation. This is like the Brazilian saying, “Rich Father, Noble Son, Poor Grandson”. In Mind Your Business we talk about solutions that enable your Business to outlive you and one of the solutions is having adequate Operating Capital for the next Generation if you so desire…not everyone does.
