Northern Development has partnered with the Forum for Women Entrepreneurs (FWE) to bring XL Your Business to Prince George – a special event catered to drive small business growth in Northern B.C.
The “XL Your Business: Best Practices for Any Business. Any Size.” event is a response to a need that Northern B.C.’s entrepreneurs have access to education and resources to grow and scale their businesses. The event welcomes both men and women, and will feature a panel discussion exploring best business practices for a company’s growth phase, including marketing and branding, the user experience and systems.
“Business leaders, their staff and customers experience a much smoother expansion when the right systems are in place, a brand is positioned for growth, and a user experience can be sustained despite any challenges a company may be experiencing,” said Lisa Niemetscheck, FWE General Manager.
Some of Canada’s top industry experts will travel to Prince George to join the panel, including Katie Reiach, co-founder of Smart Cookies and principal of Talk Shop Media. Yuri Fulmer, founder of Fulmer Capital Partners, and Kevin McElroy, president of Nuheat. Sought-after business advisor Judy Brooks, co-founder of Blo Blow Dry Bar, entrepreneur and FWE Board Member, will moderate the discussion.
The event will take place on Tuesday, November 17, 2015 from 4 – 8pm at the Ramada Prince George Hotel. More information and register for the event online at www.fwe.ca/xlyourbiz. Tickets are $60 per person and includes dinner and reception.
Northern Development is offering one free ticket to the XL Your Business event to the first fifteen Northern B.C. business owners who are interested in attending the session to help grow their business.
