About this event

Calling all women entrepreneurs, founders, and business owners! We are excited to welcome Joanna and Shelley from W Venture to host and facilitate a 2-day training session around strategy development and implementation.

Ticket

This mid-year Strategy Sprint is an agile approach to your strategy with a focus on assessing opportunities to pursue and problems to solve. Industry experts and like-minded peers will give you a fresh perspective on how to propel your venture forward. Over the two days, participants will cover strategy development sessions, peer engagement, spot coaching, feedback and refinement, and an opportunity to build your growth strategy for the second half of 2024.

Who Should Attend

You identify as a woman, leading or building a business in the Okanagan with a strong desire to grow and make a big impact. Your dreams are big and we are here to help them become a reality.

Food and drink will be provided over the two-days. This training has been highly subsidized to reduce barriers to participation. The ticket costs help to cover your catering for this 2-day training.
