CEDO BOARD OF TRUSTEES
CEDO's Board of Trustees is composed of volunteer professionals from the Orem community who have considerable experience in the business arena. The board meets once a month to review CEDO finances, hear City Council reports, review loan collections, and evaluate Revolving Loan Fund applications. Board members also provide incubator tenants with business planning assistance and feedback.
