MBiz Breakfast - From Resilience to Growth: The Future of Manitoba's Economy

Description

From Resilience to Growth: The Future of Manitoba's Economy
As businesses continue to recover from a global pandemic, we are all facing increasing inflationary cost pressures compounded by ongoing supply chain challenges and an historic labour crunch affecting the skilled trades, retail and hospitality. 

Many workplaces remain hybrid or remote, which some argue is hampering downtown revitalization. There is a growing need for upskilling to support technology advancements and new ways of working. And although women are embarking on entrepreneurial journeys at an increasing rate, not enough are taking advantage of available financing to support scale-up. These are challenging times. 

Panelists include: 

• Alison Kirkland – CEO, Women’s Enterprise Organizations of Canada
• Fred Meier – President & CEO, Red River Polytech
• Joelle Foster – CEO, North Forge Technology Exchange
• Andrew Enns – Executive Vice President - Winnipeg, Leger
