Geoff plans to cover three different points:

3. Why having the latest technology in your business can increase the value of your business when it comes to selling the business.

Join us bright and early this Thursday at 6:45am for Open Networking and Breakfast at the Pomeroy Hotel And Conference Center

Really excited to be part of this new social impact startup company Benefits2 that will truly help Canadians with disabilities obtain their Disability Tax Credit. Please reach out if you have a family member or friend who has a disability and needs assistance!!!
