In September a group of eight females from Minto and Wellington North came together believing that there was a place for a business network that supported women who run their own businesses or work in existing businesses.
As a result, the “Women of Wellington-Saugeen Area” was created.
The goal of the Women of Wellington-Saugeen Area is to support and encourage women in business through education, encouragement, ideas and networking.
Nine events and seminars are planned to take place each year and will rotate between the communities located in Minto and Wellington North.
The Launch Networking Event will take place Oct. 23 from 8 to 9:30am at the St. Mary’s Family Centre (310 Parkside Dr., Mount Forest) and will feature guest speaker Michael Fletcher of Neworld Business Coaching.
Fletcher will be providing attendees with information on how to network effectively and increase profitability with ease.
Tickets for the event are $12 for Chamber of Commerce Members and $15 for non members and can be purchased by calling 519-323-4480.
