How are the changes in tariffs and trades affecting Canadian businesses owned by women?
That is the question Women’s Enterprise Organizations of Canada hopes to find an answer to next week when it hosts a virtual community forum called Tariffs, Trade and Canadian Women Entrepreneurs.
The webinar will be held on Wednesday, March 26, from 9-10:15 a.m. It is free to attend, but space is limited.
The virtual forum will be as much about information gathering as solution finding. Leah Gilbert Morris, who is vice-president of public affairs and international relations at Export Development Canada, will facilitate the webinar. The discussion will cover how the tariff uncertainty is impacting female-owned businesses, concerns, strategies and any questions participants have.
One confirmed panelist is Marwa Abdou, who is a senior research director for the business data lab at Canadian Chamber of Commerce. More panelists will be added before the event.
