To celebrate this milestone, 20 of the region’s most successful family businesses will be inducted into the inaugural class of the Central Ohio Family Business Hall of Fame during the Conway Center’s 20th Anniversary Celebration.“The Conway Center is the real deal for Central Ohio’s family owned businesses,” said Scott McComb, Chairman, President and CEO of Heartland BancCorp. “You can’t get the programming and the peer support at this level anywhere else in the Columbus region. We’re proud, as a family business ourselves, to help sponsor this event and participate in such rich interaction.”“Research shows that family businesses are the backbone of any local economy, and that’s especially true here in Central Ohio,” said Conway Center Managing Director Jill Hofmans. “Family businesses account for a majority of the U.S. GDP, generate 62% of the country’s employment and are a large portion of all new job creation. The Conway Center works hard to provide education and resources for family businesses in our region because their success is vital. We’re honored to have partners like Heartland Bank, Dispatch Media Group and Morgan Stanley to honor some of the best family businesses in our region and continue our work.”Hall of Fame inductees are family-owned businesses with a legacy of success which have successfully transitioned to the next generation and beyond, and have been members of or supported the Conway Center for Family Business, according to J.
