Family-Owned Business Recognition Dinner

Description

The Regional Chamber, and partners Huntington, HBK and Roetzel & Andress, will honor 20 family-owned businesses at the Valley’s fourth annual Family-Owned Business Recognition Dinner, to be held February 27 at The Lake Club in Poland. Of the 20 selected honorees, one will be chosen from each of five categories as the recipient of a special award. 

At this year's event, we are excited to introduce a new program, the CEO Forum, that will launch in the Valley in 2025 and is designed to provide Ohio business leaders with a network of peers who are committed to scaling their business while helping other like-minded c-suite peers succeed. A panel discussion about the CEO Forum and its importance to the business community will include former U.S. Congressman Steve Stivers, president & CEO of the Ohio Chamber of Commerce, where the program is housed, and Robert Shenton, executive director of the CEO Forum. Stay tuned for more details!

The Family-Owned Business Program was designed to help family businesses of all sizes and industries with succession planning, including maximizing value, understanding tax implications and myriad other aspects during the transition of a business. The dinner event showcases the successes and importance of family-owned businesses in our community.
