SUMMARY:ESG Basics for SMEs – Maintaining a competitive edge and export-readiness
DESCRIPTION:This is an introductory ESG (environmental\, social and governance) workshop that will engage participants in learning how ESG affects exporting\, investment attraction\, and bottom line risks and opportunities. \nToday’s value chains are global\, highly complex and multi-tiered integrated systems\, comprised of various organizations\, people\, activities\, and resources that may span multiple geographies and jurisdictions. Their complexity often leads to increased exposure to risk (i.e. regulatory\, geopolitical\, reputational\, resource availability\, natural disasters\, and more)\, while also providing tremendous opportunities. In support of these issues\, there has emerged a strong business case for public and private companies alike to integrate environmental\, social and governance (ESG) factors into the core of their strategy and decision making. \nParticipants will be engaged to \n\nDevelop a foundational understanding of ESG\nLearn about how ESG factors can influence their business performance\nConsider business case factors for SMEs in the context of risk and opportunity\n\nThis workshop is organized by the Nova Scotia Department of Natural Resources and Renewables and Nova Scotia Business Incorporated with support from the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency and Net Zero Atlantic.

SUMMARY:How To Sell Group Programs To Corporate Buyers
DESCRIPTION:Stop chasing clients. Start landing DEALS.\nThe “How To Sell Group Programs To Corporate Buyers” Virtual Summit is a one-of-a-kind educational workshop that will teach you how to grow your revenue\, impact and global reach by selling your workshops\, courses and coaching programs to companies\, governments and non-profits. There is no other sales training like it. \nREGISTER NOW \nThe Opportunity\nEach year\, corporations spend BILLIONS on group training and group coaching programs for their employees\, clients and partners. \n\nFrom meditation\, wellbeing\, new manager training\, sales coaching and BEYOND\, the corporate market is a MAJOR OPPORTUNITY for women entrepreneurs to make big money and impact a lot of people.\nThe checks are bigger\, and ONE corporate client can be worth hundreds of thousands of dollars to your company over 2-5 years.\nWhen you start selling your group programs into corporate markets\, you tap into global supply chains\, export markets and you dramatically increase your ability to innovate and compete globally.\nThe World Economic Forum estimates the global market for online learning will reach $350B by 2025. Meanwhile\, corporations spend over $160B each year on corporate consultants alone.\nIt’s time for Women Entrepreneurs to get our share of this multi-billion dollar opportunity!\nWhen you learn how to successfully sell your group programs to corporate buyers\, you go from filling your programs “one seat at a time” to selling 5\, 10\, or even HUNDREDS of seats at a time.\nYou go from chasing clients to landing big deals.\nThis summit will inspire you to think bigger about selling your group programs – and we’ll show you EXACTLY how other women entrepreneurs just like you are making more money by selling their programs to corporate\, NGOs and government buyers.\n\nThe Problem\nWe’ve identified 3 core things that hold women entrepreneurs back from selling their group programs into corporate markets: \n\nSelling into corporate can be really intimidating for a solo entrepreneur or small business owner.\nMost training that teaches you how to sell to corporate focuses on selling consulting services NOT group programs. Selling your TIME (i.e. your consulting services) and selling your GROUP PROGRAMS are completely different.\nSelling to a person and selling to a company are very different. The tactics\, strategies and approaches you use to sell will be different too.\n\nWe created the “How To Sell Group Programs to Corporate Buyers Summit” to fill this gap\, inspire you to think BIGGER about what’s possible for your group program\, and equip you with “Made for Women Entrepreneurs By Women Entrepreneurs” solutions to help you sell your group programs to the corporate market. \nWho Is This Summit For?\nThe “How To Sell Group Programs to Corporate Buyers Summit” is for any woman entrepreneur as well as her supporters and allies – who are curious about how to sell your workshops\, courses\, coaching\, or learning programs to ORGANIZATIONS. \nWhether you are just getting started as an entrepreneur OR you are a seasoned business person\, this highly focused summit will equip you with practical\, actionable steps to tap into global supply chains with your group programs. From mindfulness to sales training\, from conflict resolution to new manager training\, we’ll show you how to start selling your learning programs to major corporate\, NGO and government buyers. \nWhat Will You Learn?\n\nThe key differences between selling to an individual buyer versus selling to a corporate buyer.\nWhat corporate buyers are looking for when they invest in group programs.\nWhat to include in your proposals so you WIN the business…and what to leave out.\nMistakes to AVOID when selling group programs to corporate buyers\nHow to know when you are READY to sell your program to a corporate buyers\nKey differences between selling consulting SERVICES vs GROUP PROGRAMS to corporate buyers\nMade for Women Entrepreneurs By Women Entrepreneurs sales strategies to land major corporate deals\nHow to transform your first deal into many more\nWhich specific industries and segments are HOT right now\nAnd much more!

SUMMARY:ACENET: Basics of Computers
DESCRIPTION:This session will help you learn not only how your computer works\, but how to use it faster\, smarter\, and more effectively. \nMost of us have experience using a computer\, whether for school\, work\, or entertainment\, but how many of us have actually had an expert teach us how to use it? This talk won’t teach you how to troubleshoot everything\, but will give you insight to how media\, programs and data are encoded and used by computers\, so you can make more sense of why computers behave the ways they do\, and solve some of your problems with greater efficiency and less frustration. They will provide an approachable overview of how a computer works\, by both looking at their history and breaking one down to explain individual components\, before highlighting some of the trade-offs to consider when buying a computer. They will provide practical\, simple\, and actionable advice on digital security and show you a few “pro tips” on how to make the most of your workstation\, phone\, or whatever device you happen to use. Whether you have a lot or a little experience using your digital technology\, if you want to learn how to use your devices more effectively\, this workshop is for you! \nThis session will be delivered online. \nParticipants must register using their institutional / organizational email address (not a personal email\, ie. gmail). \nConnections details for the session will be sent out prior to the session. \nFor more ACENET events\, click here.
