Economic Recovery and Employee Ownership
As cities seek to recover from the economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, municipal support for the transition of companies to employee ownership offers an opportunity to save many small businesses, significantly shorten the path to economic recovery, and create a foundation for a truly resilient economy. DAWI has partnered with the National League of Cities to co-publish Economic Recovery and Employee Ownership, providing timely guidance for municipal leadership on the role employee ownership can play in economic recovery efforts.
