The Wisconsin Brewers Guild names Impact Association Management as AMC
Impact Association Management announced a new partnership with the Wisconsin Brewers Guild (WIBG). This partnership will assist WIBG in its mission to promote and maintain standards of excellence in Wisconsin's brewing industry. The Wisconsin Brewers Guild is dedicated to building upon Wisconsin's rich brewing heritage through the production, marketing, and sale of top-quality craft beers while maintaining the integrity of individual brewers and their breweries. Unfortunately, the COVID-19 pandemic took a significant toll on WIBG’s network of members. As a result, WIBG focused many of its efforts and resources toward supporting its members during such a difficult time. “After much discussion as an organization, the Guild’s leadership team decided to transition from a single Executive Director to an AMC in order to gain a wide breadth of knowledge and skills that will help our not-for-profit organization grow and thrive. We are excited to be working with Impact Association Management’s experienced and organized team and look forward to the future!” said William Glass, WIBG President and President & Founder of the Wisconsin Brewing Project.
