Join us for cocktails/snacks, community and a discussion about how social enterprise and entrepreneurship can compliment each other. We are honored to host a special event with the United Way of Calgary at the beautiful Gerry Thomas Gallery on November 8th. Our feature fireside chat will be with Manjit Minhas, Co-founder & CEO at Minhas Breweries, Wineries & Distillery and current Dragon on Dragons' Den. We will also have a presentation by the COO of the United Way of Calgary and Area, Beth Gignac, on how commercial strategies can be aligned to maximize social impact and profits. Our feature local startup will be Local Laundry, an apparel company that focuses on designs that reflect local communities and who donates 10% of their profits to local charities.
