Entrepreneur Thought Leadership Series 2015 Audi Downtown Vancouver November 18
An energetic group of business professionals and aspiring entrepreneurs gathered for BCBusiness‘ 2nd annual Entrepreneur Thought Leadersip Series event. Presented by the Dilawri Group of Companies, six of B.C.s most successful business minds were once again paired together for an evening of inspiring conversation. This year’s participating panelists were Cynthia Enns, owner and vineyard manager at Laughing Stock Vineyards, Mandy Farmer, CEO at Accent Inns, John Fluevog, founder at Fluevog Shoe Company, Ryan Mackey, founder and tour guide at Vancouver Brewery Tours, Kevin Sandhu, CEO at Grow (formerly Grouplend) and Peter van Stolk, CEO at SPUD.
The panelists captivated the crowd with stories of their entrepreneurial journeys, advice on how to build a business from the ground up and insight on the obstacles they’ve had to overcome on their road to success. Despite the different industries and sectors that were represented on stage, what these six individuals did share was the high level of passion they have for what they do.
Bookended by great networking opportunities, amazing wine courtesy of Laughing Stock Vineyards and delicious bites from The Lazy Gourmet, the 2nd annual Thought Leadership Series panel event certainly delivered from start to finish.
