Innovation and Entrepreneurship in Massachusetts…“Improving the Ways We Provide Capital to Small Business”

Both Governor Patrick and Senate President Murray have sponsored “cutting edge” legislation to enhance the delivery system of economic development services in the Commonwealth that inextricably links management and capital assistance to small business for the first time. This legislation also creates a new Massachusetts Growth Capital Corporation that will merge two existing entities, recapitalizing it with a $25 million bond issue.

Our speaker, Secretary Greg Bialecki, oversees the Commonwealth’s business development, housing and community development, and consumer affairs and business regulations Undersecretariats. Secretary Bialecki is no stranger to business development—before joining the Patrick-Murray Administration, Bialecki enjoyed a twenty-year career as a real estate development and environmental lawyer and has worked extensively with public agencies, non-profit organizations and private landowners on land conservation and open space protection matters throughout the Commonwealth. He is a graduate of Harvard College and Harvard Law School.

Join SBANE to hear Secretary Bialecki unveil some very interesting and exciting ideas that have generated momentum and traction in the Legislature.
