Join us as we kick off Small Business Week with Jean-Rene Halde, President and Chief Executive Officer, BDC.

SUCCESSFUL ENTREPRENEURSHIP: Leveraging new market opportunities, aiming high and investing the future.

When entrepreneurs see the rise of emerging markets like China and Brazil, the ageing of Canada`s population and the frenzied digitalization of the world, they see fundamental changes to which they, based as they are in the small, open market that is Canada, must adapt.  If they have the right attitude, they also see enticing opportunities.

Come hear Jean-René Halde, President and CEO of the Business Development Bank of Canada (BDC) discuss what these changes mean for Canadian business.  Learn from the stories of three entrepreneurs who are successfully adapting to changing markets  - and even profiting from them!

Their recipe for success is one everyone can use: be ambitious for your business and invest in innovation and growth.
