INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES

Board of Directors

I look forward to being an active participant in the pursuit of GSEC’s aspirational goals, as well as, a stakeholder in the creation of a high yield Greater Sacramento ecosystem that is competitive, productive and works for everyone.

Cassandra Jennings,

President & CEO, St. Hope

For generations, Von Housen Automotive Group has been dedicated to supporting economic development initiatives across our region through the commitment of our time, talent and investments. We are proud to work alongside this community’s amazing leaders and the Greater Sacramento Economic Council to act as catalysts for innovative and positive growth in our six-county region.

George Grinzewitsch, Jr.,

Owner And CEO, Von Housen Automotive Group

I’m from the Bay Area originally and was relocated to Sacramento just before my senior year in high school. I quickly came to realize that there isn’t a better family town in the country. I spent my college years and career here surrounded by the mountains, ocean, wine country and river ways.

Steve Pleau,

President and CEO, The Future Automotive Group

I know that vibrant communities are central to California’s health – and the well-being of all Californians. Health Net and I share that vision with the Greater Sacramento Economic Council. It’s why I’m proud to partner in common purpose: to transform the health of our communities through strong, person-centered economic growth and development.

With thoughtful attention, we can create the thriving job opportunities that current and future residents need to make Sacramento home. We have an especially powerful moment now, as we emerge from the pandemic, to reshape business models from what we’ve learned. It’s an exciting time to collaborate for the future we all want.

Brian Ternan,

President & CEO, Health Net, Inc., a Centene Company

I joined the Board to support the Capital Region’s economic development and to collaborate with businesses and entrepreneurs in our region. The Greater Sacramento Economic Council is a catalyst for innovation and growth, ensuring we are poised for success and competitive. I’m proud to be part of it.

James Beckwith,

President And CEO, Five Star Bank

Sacramento State graduates over 9,000 students per year. These students need good, high paying jobs, and they want to stay in the Sacramento Region. I joined the Board of the Greater Sacramento Economic Council because GSEC is not only retaining jobs in the region, it is also bringing jobs, great jobs, to the region.

Robert S. Nelsen,

President, Sacramento State

When the Greater Sacramento Economic Council was formed, I strongly believed the time was right for Sacramento. Our region was poised for business and regional growth. We had outgrown the “government town” and Sacramento was ready to position itself as a leader in Northern California. GSEC continues to be the catalyst bringing new energy to Greater Sacramento’s business community and leading the conversation around business development.

Mike Teel,

Owner and Chairman Of The Board, Raley’s Family of Fine Stores

It is a privilege to live, work and raise a family in the beautiful Greater Sacramento Region. We have a responsibility to preserve and enhance that experience for everyone who lives here. That is why AKT continues to invest in the Greater Sacramento Economic Council.

Kyriakos Tsakopoulos,

Co-Chair, AKT Investments, Inc.

Health is more than what takes place in a clinical care environment. The socioeconomic health of a community is what leads to healthy neighborhoods. Being on the GSEC Board affords us the opportunity to connect with business leaders who share our hopes, dreams and aspirations for making Greater Sacramento an extraordinary place to live.

Chet Hewitt

President and CEO, Sierra Health Foundation and The Center at Sierra Health Foundation

The impact of Sutter Health’s not-for-profit mission, to enhance the health and well-being of the communities we serve, reaches far beyond the walls of our hospitals and clinics. As one of Sacramento’s oldest and largest employers, Sutter Health helps drive economies across the region. I joined the GSEC Board to actively work to enhance and promote the Greater Sacramento region so other businesses can benefit from all that this vibrant community has to offer, just as we have.
