Toronto event hears from experts and immigrant entrepreneurs on how to be successful

A networking event for Canadian immigrants who are seeking to become entrepreneurs was organized by the Toronto Region Immigrant Employment Council (TRIEC), through its Professional Immigrant Networks (PINs) program.
“Newcomer Start-ups: Building a successful business,” aimed to provide immigrants with information on programs and services that can support them to start their own businesses, to inspire them through stories of successful immigrants and to give them opportunities to build connections.
“Immigrants in the GTA are increasingly turning to entrepreneurship as a career option, both by choice and as an alternative when they are struggling to find meaningful employment,” said Margaret Eaton, Executive Director at TRIEC.
