Summer Chapter Events at The ESOP Association and Looking Ahead to Fall

Summer is right around the corner—and The ESOP Association is gearing up for a series of Chapter events aimed at promoting education, collaboration, networking and a strong sense of community among employee-owned companies across the United States. 

At TEA, we understand promoting employee ownership is a year-round commitment. That’s why TEA Chapter Directors have been working hard to bring you exciting summer opportunities so you can stay connected and informed. 

From “Let’s Talk ESOPs” discussions and lunch & learns to golf outings and multi-track conferences, these events provide unique opportunities for employee owners and ESOP professionals to connect with peers, explore industry trends, and deepen their understanding of employee ownership. Events covering a wide range of topics and engaging speakers are planned and open for registration. 

While summer activities continue throughout June, July, and August, planning for fall conferences is also well underway. Many chapter and regional conferences have already opened for registration with dynamic agendas and speaker lineups in development.

This fall, every TEA Chapter will host either a multi-Chapter or individual Chapter event. No matter where you are in the country, an event will be available to you, making it easier than ever to get involved with your local TEA Chapter.  And remember, Chapter membership is included as part of your TEA annual membership. Chapter events provide excellent educational and networking opportunities, close to you and at an affordable price. If you're interested in presenting, volunteering, attending, or sponsoring, please contact your Chapter Director for more details.

Whether you're a seasoned ESOP professional or new to the employee ownership community, TEA's Chapter events are a great way to learn, connect, and grow within the ESOP community. Check out the schedule to see what interests you and we look forward to seeing you at some of our events soon.
