Entrepreneurs.... are you ready?

This day and a half conference was created for small business owners and operators in Northeast Alberta. Metis Crossing will be our host for an event on September 8 and 9th.

The time has come when we can begin to network, hear new ideas, learn something new and re-connect with our business services, colleagues and friends.
