In this session, Matt Cropp of the Vermont Employee Ownership Center will provide an overview of common broad-based employee ownership models, how an exit to employee ownership works, and the strategies founders can employ pre-exit to build a strong foundation for an ownership culture.

This interactive seminar will look at our reactions to failure, how people typically move through a business loss, and ways to incorporate the sometimes-hidden benefits from our errors.

In partnership with VCET, VBSR’s Small Business toolkit will now be accessible as five separate free courses on the Vermont Startup Collective, a digital platform, connecting 700+ entrepreneurs, teams, freelancers, and mentors across Vermont.
