The Family Business Alliance was developed 20 years ago by regional business owners. It is a member-driven organization that aims to enable local family businesses to maintain and grow a profitable business and successfully transfer management and ownership to the next generation. The Family Business Alliance provides its members with executive educational programs, enhanced networking opportunities with fellow family business owners, a forum to discuss common issues and concerns, and exposure to nationally recognized experts to ensure that the businesses’ needs are constantly identified and addressed. 
 
Today, the Family Business Alliance is a leading educational and informational resource center for family and closely held businesses in Northeastern Pennsylvania. The nonprofit organization’s mission is to be the trusted resource providing world-class services to support, strengthen, and empower regional family-owned businesses and our community.
During their 20 years in service, they have operated with the intent of accelerating business growth and sustaining family business harmony. The Family Business Alliance helps companies to address the unique and critical issues facing firms of all sizes, including succession planning, communication techniques, strategic planning, governance issues, sales growth, developing a family office, leadership development, compensation issues, advisory boards, conflict resolution strategies, family foundations, and more. They accomplish this through educational programs, networking, counseling, and guidance so that success is achieved for the community, because family businesses are a crucial piece in our regional economy and in the lives of their families and employees.
