The NH SBA received support for the delivery of the program from the NH Small Business Development Center and TD Bank. The graduates were recognized at a celebration on October 14th at the Manchester Country Club in Bedford.
In her congratulatory comments, Greta Johansson, NH SBA district director said, “The class came from a wide spectrum of industries including manufacturers, service providers, research and development and construction. They worked hard and immersed themselves in the coursework in order to gain maximum benefit from this valuable program.”
During the celebration, Andrew White, president of Comptus shared remarks on behalf of the class. He said, “One of the unexpected benefits of the course is to provide an opportunity for the business owner to take the time to focus on the larger internal dialogue about who we are as a leader of our company and focus on working on the business, rather than just in the business.”
Recruitment for the 2017 class is underway.
