Hosted by the Grand Prairie Regional Innovation Network
With a 20-30 minute preface by Forward Cities, this engaging, interactive session will encourage discussions on strategies to encourage equity and inclusion to your ecosystem, allowing communities and regions to grow and sustain equitable entrepreneurial and innovative ecosystem.
Look at systems of support and identify ways equity can be advanced through an ecosystem's: people, programs, networks, and narratives. How can we amplify the rural ecosystem’s greatest opportunities and address persistent challenges? Share your perspectives and insights on the state of the rural ecosystem.
We will engage in small group and larger group discussions around entrepreneurial journeys and stories. We want to encourage a storytelling strategy designed to tell the stories emerging from rural Alberta around entrepreneurship and innovation to grow broader community support for local ecosystems.
