Thank you so much Gorette! You are so awesome to work with. I am very happy that you benefit greatly from being a member of GTApreneurs, and I proud to have you host our Newmarket Events! Cheers to both of our long-term successes! 
I attended a Gtapreneurs Networking event this week and it awesome. Tammy Defoe was the organizer and it featured a guest speaker and various businesses highlighting their businesses at exhibits. We all got to do some networking and I met some great people I am connecting too.. Tammy poured her heart into this and it showed. I will be going back next month and highly recommend Gtapreneurs where I have met some wonderful people and made lasting friendships.

It was great to finally have you at one of our in person events Lindsay! I am so happy to hear that you will be coming back next month! 
Being a member of GTAprenuers Richmond Hill group for the past year and also having attended over a dozen of highly effective networking events planned by Tammy Defoe and her team for the past 2 years, I have to say that I have met a diverse group of professionals from all walks of life. This is not an easy feat to achieve on your own. I have leveraged many contacts from these groups of professionals, many of whom I have become a client of and many whom have become clients of my own. Thank you to Tammy for these initiatives. I look forward to more progressive experiences like these.
