The November 15 Professional Development and Networking event was hashtag "luscious"! For those of you who missed out, we had chefs from across Canada come together to compete in a Copper Skillet competition. The winners, Brandon Szocs (Banff Center) and Ryan Beauvais (NAV Centre) pulled out all the stops in their culinary delights. The pressure was on with some intense judging by famed foodies Trevor Lui of the International Center, Guy Rigby, founder/president of Octopus (former VP of F&B for Four Seasons), Jose Iribarren, executive chef at Barberians Steak House, and Ken Hunt from Toronto Life Magazine. We had a blast partnering with IACC (International Association of Conference Centers) on this engaging event.
Following the delicious lunch served by our event host, Vantage Venues, we engaged in an afternoon of education and the future of the events industry sponsored by Tourism Ottawa and the Shaw Center. We had the opportunity to hear about meetings of the future and how to prepare and plan for what’s to come and stay ahead of the curve. We also had Cher Jones, social media guru, delight us with all the how-to’s to keep our social media game on point. #AMAZING
We hope to see you at our next event: Save the date February 13 for Women in Leadership: Executive Leadership Skills Certificate Program.
