The Connecticut Business & Industry Association (CBIA) announced the election of Kevin Grigg as its new chairman of the board of directors.
Grigg is CEO of Fuss & Neil, a Manchester-based engineering, planning, and design firm. He succeeds Matt McSpedon, who is the Shelton-based executive director for Connecticut and the mid-Hudson middle market for JP Morgan Chase Bank NA.
“From the day he was elected to the board, Kevin has been a very engaged and thought-provoking director on both policy and operational matters,” said CBIA President and CEO Chris DiPentima. “He is viewed as a leader among his peers and his elevation to the chair role is welcomed by many, including his fellow directors, past director-emeriti, and CBIA staff. We are all excited by Kevin’s leadership and look forward to where it will take us.”
The board also elected two vice chairpersons: Marietta Lee, president and CEO of Westbrook-based The Lee Company and Brian Montanari, president and CEO of HABCO Industries LLC in Glastonbury.
