Thank you to all the ESOPs and employee owners who joined us in Washington, DC, for TEA’s National 2023 Conference.
From the feedback we received, it was one of our most fun and productive events in recent years! This year’s theme of Education, Advocacy and Community really hit the mark as we continue to promote education for ESOPs and employee owners at the National Conference.
