Nate Hogan named to NSBA Leadership Council

CLT Alliance Foundation President Nate Hogan was recently named to the National Small Business Association (NSBA) Leadership Council. NSBA is the nation’s oldest small-business advocacy organization, and operates on a staunchly nonpartisan basis. 

Hogan, a recognized leader in the small-business community, joins the NSBA Leadership Council alongside other small-business advocates from across the country as they work to promote the interests of small business to policymakers in Washington, D.C.

“Being invited to join the National Small Business Association Leadership Council is a reflection of the CLT Alliance Foundation’s commitment to ensuring we bring a full complement of people, programming and technology (including data and information) to bear in our mission to grow the economy one small business at a time,” Hogan said.

Hogan leads the CLT Alliance Foundation’s work to empower underrepresented small businesses, entrepreneurs, and business leaders in the Charlotte Region. He has 25 years of experience as an entrepreneur, intrapreneur, and senior executive with proven success in defining strategic vision, providing transformational leadership, advocating for equity in urban public education, leading high-performing public and nonprofit boards and driving business growth in hyper-competitive markets.

Hogan joined the NSBA Leadership Council as part of his efforts to tackle the many critical issues facing small business, including tax reform, regulatory restraint, health care costs and how access to capital will impact small business. The NSBA Leadership Council is focused on providing valuable networking between small-business advocates from across the country while ensuring small business a seat at the table as Congress and regulators take up key small-business proposals.

“I am proud to have Nate as part of our Leadership Council,” NSBA President and CEO Todd McCracken said. “He came to us highly recommended and I look forward to our coordinated efforts for years to come.”
