The British-American Business Group named a new president while announcing that membership income through November rose nearly 12 percent over the same period last year.  

Current President Alex Knight, a partner at Habif, Arogeti & Wynne LLP, is stepping down to fulfill unforeseen professional obligations, according to the BABG’s most recent newsletter.

“Unfortunately, the demands of my professional practice have unexpectedly changed recently, disallowing me to give the BABG the attention it needs & deserves,” Mr. Knight said in a statement.

Andy McCartney of Premiere Global Services, former first vice president of the organization, will take over as president.
