Program Overview:

You have spent years building your business. But have you spent enough time thinking about what happens when you are ready to step away from it?

NAWBO – Buffalo/Niagara Chapter Partner M&T Bank, together with Wilmington Trust, invites business owners to an evening focused on Exit Planning: What Business Owners Need to Know.

Whether a transition is several years away or beginning to feel much closer, thoughtful exit planning can help business owners protect what they have built and prepare for what comes next. This event will explore strategies to increase the value of your business, prepare for a successful transition, and plan for life after ownership.

For women business owners in particular, succession planning is not simply about selling or transferring a company. It is about understanding the value you have created, making intentional decisions about the future of the business, and considering how that transition fits into your own financial and personal plans.

NAWBO – Buffalo/Niagara is pleased to share this opportunity from M&T Bank, one of our Chapter Partners, as part of our commitment to connecting women business owners with practical information, expertise, and resources that can support them through every stage of business ownership.
