Babies, Business + Breakfast Dec 2022 Pop-Up: Ask + Receive Meetup

Join Our Final Mixing Babies And Business™ 🚼📊

In-Person Meetup of 2022!

Think of it as a family-friendly business meetup in one of Ottawa's spaces built for entrepreneurs at all stages of their journeys!

Hi, I'm Amy Lynch and I believe parenthood and professional development don't have to be mutually exclusive.

People have families and they want to invest in themselves. I've created a community that welcomes primary caregivers AND their children to talk about business in a safe and welcoming space (snacks and toys included!)

Join us on Friday, December 9th, 2022

10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.

A Pop-Up Play Group x Mini Business Mastermind x Casual Breakfast Meetup

Good to know:

• there is a parking lot on site with FREE access in 2022, as well as two-hour free street parking and access to public transit
• the venue has baby change facilities on the ground floor near reception and on Level 2 near the Training Room
• I'll set up a play area for pre-school age kids
• there is an elevator and stairs to access Level 2

P.S. I may also have my 11-month-old baby with me and have previously brought my two other children to this venue multiple times as both an event attendee and a Bayview Meetups host – it is accessible and strollers are welcome.

RSVP soon as space in the workshop room (and stroller parking) are limited!

MEETUP TOPIC:

Ask + Receive

Attendees are invited to share their professional 'ASK' about their business or professional situation in order to 'RECEIVE' feedback and guidance to help you move forward from the group.

Ideas for your 'ASK' include:

• Practice your elevator pitch
• Request an introduction to an expert in a specific area
• Seek feedback on supplier relationships or business resources
• Share an employment opportunity to work with your business
• Source current funding and financing opportunities

*** Think of it as a mini mastermind alongside your kid(s) with the goal of receiving feedback on your professional or business-focused 'ask' *******

AGENDA: Friday, December 9th, 2022

10:00 a.m. - Doors Open and Registration: Grab a hot or cold drink, some snacks and explore the play area!

10:30 a.m. - Interactive Discussion: Ask + Receive Feedback in between feeding your kid(s) or while building towers, all questions welcome

11:10 a.m. - Open Networking: Grab some more snacks, mix and mingle with other parents and their kids

11:30 a.m. - Event Close: Pack up to head home for lunch + naptime
