Loved the Keynote Speakers.
Cathy HeppnerConcept Plumbing & GasI think it’s safe to say that we were all blown away by the calibre of the gala – the dinner was fantastic, the performance lovely and Ann Mukerjee’s keynote was beyond inspiring!
Stephanie HayesLeadership DevelopmentOverwaitea Food GroupI had a riot at EXCELerate, and if there is anything I can do for you or your patrons ongoing please don’t hesitate to ask.
Tantalus LabsThere is nothing more powerful than inspiration. A wonderful conference to learn, meet other entrepreneurs, share your story and be inspired to achieve your goals. Amazing!!
Editor AgencyWhat captivated me the most was stories, stories of the speakers, the delegates, the businesses, the products….The journeys that have brought them to this point. The challenges, the trials, struggles, successes, along their way, made up who they are as much as their perseverance, their belief in themselves, their “just do it” –ism.
Self Care-FreeI am feeling inspired, educated and frankly blown away by the many amazing women and men that we encountered over the three days. What a fantastic and first-class event! It so exceeded any expectations that I had and I have been passing the word around at BMO that we should be very proud to be the presenting sponsor at this event.
BMO Bank of MontrealSuper organized, great energy, variety and well attended.
There is no question that this was once again one of the most captivating conferences that I have attended—with not only one good idea—but many. It is wonderful how the panels all have different points of view that foster challenging perhaps our previous opinions or at the very least give us more information to have an informed opinion. Our team thought it was time well spent indeed!
McCurdy FinancialI was thrilled to both participate in and present at EXCELerate 2017. As a business owner, it is hard to justify the time to attend a conference. However, this conference surpassed my expectations. I learned a great deal, gained many new business connections and walked away feeling very inspired.
Clear Concept IncThank you so much for including me in your awesome conference! The people in my session were so amazing!
