SUMMARY:ETA Meetup for Greater Lafayette
DESCRIPTION:A $10 trillion dollar opportunity is about to change hands. Over the next decade\, millions of baby boomer business owners will retire. Many will sell profitable small businesses to the next generation of entrepreneurs. This is ETA or Entrepreneurship Through Acquisition. Rather than starting from scratch\, you buy an established business\, step in as owner\, and grow it. If you've purchased a small business\, are searching for one\, or are simply curious about the model\, we'd love to have you join us. You might be second-in-command at an SMB\, an MBA student\, a corporate executive exploring a career change\, or a startup entrepreneur who wants a "boring" business. Not sure if this is for you? Don't self-exclude. This will be a casual meetup but with intentional learning: a short presentation or panel to start\, followed by conversation\, stories\, and connections. Your hosts in Greater Lafayette: Pat East\, executive in residence at The Mill // Mikel Berger\, president & CEO of Greater Lafayette Commerce // Amanda Findlay\, executive director at MatchBOX Studios Date: Tuesday\, September 9 at Noon Place: MatchBOX Coworking Studio\, 17 S 6th Street To register\, visit: https://bit.ly/ETAMeetup
