Ontario East Quarterly Meeting and Networking Event

Ontario East hosted a sold out Quarterly Networking Meeting in Kawartha Lakes last week that included important updates from all of our provincial and federal partners, members and innovative businesses in the region.

Thank you to members Vince Killen, Kawartha Lakes CFDC and Rebecca Mustard, Kawartha Lakes Economic Development and their teams for ensuring both our board and networking meetings were a success!

We look forward to our next gathering in the fall, after OEMC.ca.
