The next phase of the competition will see the finalists participate in a series of business development workshops, delivered by a team of local business leaders and subject matter experts.
Workshops will be held throughout October and November, and will cover various topics needed for the finalists to complete a fully developed business plan.
Following completion of the workshops, finalists will submit their final business plans and make a pitch to a panel of judges, who will then select an overall winner.
Stay tuned! Finalist profiles will be featured on www.reinventleamington.com and the Municipality of Leamington Facebook page over the next few weeks.
