The 39th Annual America's Small Business Development Center Conference (ASBDC) took place September 3-6, 2019, in Long Beach, California, at the Long Beach Convention Center. The conference attracted over 1,300 Small Business Development Center (SBDC) professionals from all over the nation. These advisors, trainers and directors all come together for 3 days of professional development and networking.

The 2019 America's SBDC Exchange/Experience Conference set out to explore trends in consumer expectations and how both big and small companies are adapting to these changes in technology and behavior.  There were over 180 workshops available for the attendees of this year's conference. The workshops covered topics such as marketing, sales, social media, management/leadership, finance & accounting, business planning and more. Three members of the Toledo SBDC staff attended and came away with valuable insight.

A Brief Company History
BrightView was formed in 2015 in Cincinnati by Dr. Shawn Ryan,
MD, MBA, ABEM, ABAM. After working in emergency medicine for many years, he became acutely aware of the opioid epidemic in the greater Cincinnati area and decided it was time to make a change. He then started BrightView along with two other colleagues and BrightView has since successfully opened locations all across Ohio, including three more centers in Cincinnati and one each in Chillicothe, Columbus, Dayton, Canton, Springfield and Akron. BrightView continues to grow, with two more centers opening by the end of 2019 in Wilmington and Warren, Ohio. Today, BrightView has 10 employees at the Maumee center and more than 375 employees statewide. BrightView opened its Toledo Region location at 1655 Holland Rd., Ste. F, in Maumee on April 8, 2019.

What does your company do?
BrightView is an outpatient addiction medicine practice based on clinical best practices. Through the use of medical treatment in conjunction with psychological and social services, BrightView offers the necessary support to help patients meet their mental, emotional and physical goals. To do this, we adhere to the medical model of addiction, recognizing that it needs to be treated on the biological, psychological and social levels.

Toledo City Council to vote on new fire and emergency services agreement with Ottawa Hills

​By: Tim Schneider, Toledo Regional Chamber of Commerce
​At its regular meeting scheduled for 4:00 p.m. on September 17, Toledo City Council is expected to vote on Ordinance 436-19 which would authorize a new agreement for the city to continue providing fire and emergency services to the Village of Ottawa Hills. The new agreement would terminate the city’s current lease on the village’s fire station and adopt a $300,000 annual service fee with the option for adjustment based on changes in inflation. The city absorbed the village’s fire and emergency operations following a 2011 agreement which included the city operating the village’s fire station. The city recently determined following an 11-month trial agreement that it is able to provide better and lower-cost service to the village using stations within the city.

A Second Chance for the Labor Pool

By: Jeffrey Korzenik, Chief Investment Strategist, ​Fifth Third Bank 
​“Would you rather pay someone $30,000 to do a job, or pay $30,000 to keep someone in jail?” That was the question posed to me by Dan Meyer, CEO of Nehemiah Manufacturing. The Cincinnati-based manufacturer of consumer products has pursued the former option, hiring dozens of employees with past criminal records. The national dialog on the U.S. justice system largely focuses on sentencing reforms, but proposed changes will be fruitless if those with criminal records have no job opportunities and no recourse but to return to illegal activities. Nehemiah and others are pioneers in developing paths for “second-chancers” or “returning citizens” (those who have been released from prison) to lead productive and meaningful lives.
