The Guelph Academy
As you progress in business, it's important to change up the way you build and nurture your network. The Guelph Academy is a place where shared experiences, strategies, and resources, make for a supportive and engaging environment, where Guelph-based businesses can grow and excel.
We Think
Our meetings focus heavily on sharing what works best for our businesses. This mastermind aims to arm our members with as much shared knowledge and experience as possible, in order to empower them on their journey through the trials and tribulations of entrepreneurship.
We Read
With infinite books on the subject of business, the search can get quite overwhelming. Together we'll share the good reads that we've found value in, and engage in a monthly reading program, supported by a discussion of core concepts and practical application at our bi-weekly meetings.
We Share
With any exclusive networking group, one of our chief goals is to share business. Referrals are the lifeblood of the entrepreneurial journey, and everyone wants their leads. If you're a member of The Guelph Academy, you'll be in the company of some of the most reputable and connected individuals in the community.
We Socialize
Have you ever wanted to attend a social networking event, but you felt uncomfortable going alone, so you didn't go at all? Or worse, you went and didn't even talk to anyone? I think with the exception of a few of us extroverts, this is a common occurrence, and that's why we plan to attend select events throughout the year as a team. There's aways strength in numbers!
