SUMMARY:Succession Planning - Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Register online: https://communities-rise.org \nAs a business owner\, your business can mean the world to you\, and that’s why it’s so important to create a succession plan. We put together this training and a toolkit to help you succession plan with ease. \nWhat is succession planning? A succession plan helps business owners plan for what would happen in the case of the owner’s retirement\, disability\, or death. Not having a plan can result in family fighting over control\, and in some cases can leave the community without a cornerstone business. A plan takes into consideration who will own and manage the business after the owner leaves\, and minimizes the tax impact of the transfer of business ownership. \nSpeakers: \nNisha Nariya\, Perkins Coie\nPeter Smith\, Apex Law Group\nTara Vitale\, Apex Law Group\nThe Succession Planning Toolkit is the result of a collaboration between City of Seattle Office of Economic Development\, Perkins Coie\, The Apex Law Group and Communities Rise. We would like to thank the City of Seattle\, Office of Economic Development for their partnership and resources to create this Toolkit. We would also like to thank the following attorneys who graciously provided their time and knowledge to create the content of this Toolkit: \nNisha Nariya\, Perkins Coie\nPeter Smith\, Apex Law Group\nTara Vitale\, Apex Law Group\nScott Wallace\, Perkins Coie
