About me
Glynn Lloyd has been an innovator in transformative urban economic development for more than 30 years. As Nectar’s Executive Director, he leads our efforts to invest in small businesses and create innovative residential programs that advance environmental justice and stable housing. Glynn also serves on the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Economic Development Planning Council, which is responsible for crafting a strategic plan to guide Massachusetts economic development policy over the next four years, and the Energy Transformation Advisory Board, which helps guide and advise the work of the Massachusetts Office of Energy Transformation. Prior to this role, Glynn was the founding Executive Director of the Foundation for Business Equity (FBE), one of our legacy organizations. There, he oversaw our unique approach to truly scaling up local Black and Latino enterprises to close the racial wealth gap. Once FBE merged with Mill Cities Community Investments to make broader impacts in addressing New England’s wealth gap, Glynn became executive director of the combined entity — now known as Nectar.
