Bryce J. Bergey, MBA – Hatfield, Pa.
Day job: Bryce is an investments officer with Univest Corporation of Pennsylvania, Souderton, Pa., working with the Institutional Investments team to assist clients with corporate retirement plans. He was recruited while a business administration and economics student at Eastern Mennonite University. Ken Hochstetler, a senior Univest executive and MEDA board member, came to EMU and invited Bryce to become a corporate management trainee at Univest. Bryce agreed, and ended up staying. When he succeeded Hochstetler on the MEDA board (at 25, its youngest director) he continued a decades-long tradition of Univest involvement with MEDA.
What does he like about MEDA? Just about everything, it turns out. Bryce attended local chapter meetings in Harrisonburg, Va., and attended a number of MEDA conventions while a student. “I believe in the power of the markets and the power of people,” he says. “MEDA uses the best of both of these to provide new business solutions to entrepreneurs around the world.”
He also likes MEDA’s first-to-market track record, which combined with MEDA’s faith emphasis “allows for a powerful platform that reaches out to millions of families. This is also exciting because it allows MEDA to be flexible to adjust to new market conditions. Entrepreneurial thinking can lead to new opportunities for our stakeholders.”
Hobbies: Work ranks high as a hobby for Bryce, but he rounds it out with volleyball, golf and skiing. He and his wife, Maureen, “absolutely love” to travel and this spring spent three weeks in Vietnam.
