Employee Ownership Accelerator

JGA working together to share employee ownership expertise

We are very proud to share the news that we are working in partnership with Stir to Action, TLT and Triodos UK, and supported by the Employee Ownership Association, to bring the first Employee Ownership Accelerator course to life.

On announcing the course, which has already opened for registration of interest, Jeremy said:

“With many years’ experience of bringing employee ownership to life in organisations, we know that the journey starts with enabling business owners to explore and understand how employee ownership can fulfil the vision they have for their business. We look forward to working with this new initiative to inform, inspire and enable owners to take those next steps.”

The accelerator, to be hosted at Stir to Action’s New Economy Centre at Selgars Mill in Mid-Devon on 17-19 September 2021, will support a cohort of business owners to explore employee ownership models and look at how to determine what will work for them, and also consider the legal, financial and tax implications.

JGA will be facilitating the course, with Ben Watson from TLT and Simon Crichton from Triodos Bank providing legal and financial expertise.

Deb Oxley, Chief Executive of the EOA said:

“As the employee ownership sector grows, so does the knowledge and best practice about what makes a good employee owned business. It is great to see the launch of new initiatives that support this as well as the aims of the EOA – to unlock the potential of people, businesses and the economy through employee ownership.”
