Interprete un requisito como el mínimo publicado por la organización, no como una garantía. Un criterio de ingresos puede tener versiones alternativas para distintos tipos de negocio, los capítulos pueden establecer criterios locales más estrictos y las entidades de acceso solo por invitación publican criterios que describen a sus miembros, sin que ello implique su admisión.

Cómo funciona la admisión

Application process

Companies join by selecting one of the five published membership tiers. Peer group entry is separate: applicants complete an FBA Peer Group Application or contact the Director of Membership, who advises which of the three streams fits, and are then placed into a group of eight to ten peers at a comparable career stage.

Invitation required

Sponsor required

Selectivity

Not publicly disclosed: membership appears open to family-owned businesses in West Michigan at the published rates. Peer group placement is curated by staff rather than open.

Membership term

Annual

Primary audience

Family-owned businesses in West Michigan: owners and family leaders running the business, next-generation family members preparing to lead, and the non-family executives who work alongside them

Miembro tipo

Members are family-owned companies in the Grand Rapids region across a wide size range. The dues scale runs from a Small Business tier restricted to firms under $3 million in annual revenue up to a $10,000 Community tier, so both very small family firms and substantial regional employers sit in the same organisation. Peer groups also admit non-family key executives.
