What happens when a banker, a lawyer, an accountant, and an entrepreneur walk into the Startup Zone? You get a Corporate Entrepreneurship Panel moderated by the Startup Zone CEO, Patrick Farrar!
At Startup Zone, our Resident Companies have access to office hours with many in-house specialists and business professionals. This panel will highlight three of our sponsors who host office hours out of our space: Erica Bustard, Small Business Advisor and Mutual Funds Representative at Scotiabank as our banker; Michael Drake, Partner at McInnis Cooper as our lawyer; and Gerry Lanigan, Senior Manager, Financial Advisory Services at BDO as our accountant. They will be talking about how crucial this team is for entrepreneurs starting out their business, the services they can offer for entrepreneurs, and why you should be taking advantage of them. To add to this discussion, we will also be joined by Steve Collette, founder of Third Degree Training and Actual Nutrition as our entrepreneur on the panel.
Startup Zone will be hosting this panel as our first event of 2020, taking place on January 8th at noon. Lunch will be provided, and it will be a great chance to expand your network in the Charlottetown business community. Kick-off the New Year with all of us at Startup Zone by learning more about how these corporate connections can help you develop a more successful business!
