JANE VERON
CEO
After a career in management consulting, marketing and strategy, Jane was determined to apply her professional skills to make an impact in the local economy. Jane saw both the need and the opportunity: The need arose from small businesses with great ideas and passion but a lack of resources and expertise. The opportunity existed in the enormous pool of professionals who had a strong desire to redeploy their business acumen. She built TAP to harness the untapped potential of both small businesses and local professionals.
