Andre Bryan Joins Other Minority Business Owners Poised for Growth at Tuck at Dartmouth for Executive Learning Program
Location: Hanover, New Hampshire, USA – July 10-15, 2011 Andre Bryan, President of APB & Associates, Inc., was one of 34 entrepreneurs from around the country who participated in a Tuck Executive Education at Dartmouth program. Growing the Minority Business to Scale is a one-week development program designed for business owners and executives with five to ten years of senior management experience and whose minority businesses are poised for growth. Growth is often a requirement for minority businesses whose customers include large-scale corporations that are consolidating their supply base around solid, reliable producers. Tuck’s Growing the Minority Business to Scale considers three pathways for achieving scale: organic growth (adding customers, contracts, new businesses, and building capacity), growth through mergers and acquisitions (joining or buying other businesses), and growth through strategic alliances (partnering with a complementary collaborator). Through interactive study, APB strengthened its infrastructure capacity around:- Growth Strategy and Implementation
- Financial Analysis in Preparation for Growth
