These remarkable women will come together to share their unique journeys, passions, driving forces, and visions for the future.

By bringing together local entrepreneurs and powerhouse women, we hope to foster stronger relationships and drive impactful change.
When we understand and value women’s inclusion, we forge a better world. And when women themselves are inspired to be included, there’s not only a sense of belonging and relevance, but there’s empowerment. As entrepreneurs, how does female inclusion influence your team’s culture, company leadership, and strategic vision?

Improv at First Sight
Love is in the air, and we are delighted to invite you and your significant other to connect in a special Valentine’s Day activity - an exclusive private Improv workshop followed by a romantic cocktail social and an opportunity to stay overnight at the luxurious Oak Bay Hotel with a special EO preferred rate.
About the workshop
Improvisation, like falling in love, is all about creating connections: Be present, be an active listener, say “yes", say “and", play games together, and of course, laugh… a lot! Join improviser and storyteller Dave Morris as he takes you through a series of on-your-feet exercises to teach you the skills of improvisation. Improv skills are more than just tools for comedy, they are tools for authentic connections, and being a better person.
You can participate solo if you wish.
5:30 PM - A 45 minute session, which ends with a cocktail reception with a private bar and eats.
8:30 PM - Event ends and all participants are welcome to stay overnight at the Hotel, or continue the party at the Hotel’s food + drink spaces. Special room rates + booking information will be sent out in mid-December 2023.
