Their expansion signifies our commitment to providing valuable resources and support to advisors, experts, and business owners across diverse communities.  ## The Chapter's Beginning  [Mark Kipp](https://www.linkedin.com/in/markkipp/) is the President of the Kansas City Chapter. He became a Certified Exit Planning Advisor (CEPA ®) in November 2023. Since becoming a CEPA, he saw a need for exit planning in his community. The decision to create the chapter stemmed from the awareness of increasing talent shortages and challenges that businesses in the Kansas City region face due to the arrival of large-scale companies. Moreover, with numerous successful businesses being owned by the boomer and GenX generations, there is an evident demand for skilled advisors to assist them in navigating successful transitions. ## Mission of the Chapter  Like many of EPI’s chapters, Mark hopes to have a gathering place for CEPAs and advisors alike where they can share ideas, network, and ultimately meet the demand for skilled advisors the city currently demonstrates.  ## Launch Event Details Date: Wednesday, November 6th, 2024 Location: Sheraton Overland Park Convention Center | Overland Park, KS Time: 7:30 AM - 9:00 AM CT [Register for the EPI Kansas City Chapter Launch](https://exit-planning-institute.org/chapter/epi-kansas-city-chapter)  Interested in starting a chapter in your area?
