Among the attendees at last year’s business mixer at the Centre Belle-Alliance were, from left, Jeannette Arsenault, spokesperson for the Acadian and Francophone Chamber of Commerce of P.E.I.; Jonathan Greenan, then president of the Greater Summerside Chamber of Commerce; and Colette Aucoin, vice-president of the Collège Acadie Î.-P.-É.
The hosts will again be RDÉE Prince Edward Island, the Acadian and Francophone Chamber of Commerce of P.E.I. (CCAFLIPE), the Collège Acadie Î.-P.-É. and Centre Belle-Alliance.
“We want to give an opportunity for the Summerside business community to network with us so they’ll get to know our businesses, organizations, services and facilities better,” says Jeannette Arsenault, spokesperson for the CCAFLIPE. “All francophone and Anglophone businesspeople, including our members from all over the province, are invited to attend free of charge.”
The hosts and organizers will have an opportunity to say a few words during the brief formal part of the mixer. Booths will be set up by several Summerside area businesses as well as by the RDÉE and the Collège Acadie Î.-P.-É. Door prizes will be offered at all booths.
Hors d’oeuvres will be provided by the hosts and a cash bar service.
A similar business mixer, with three of the same hosts, was recently held at the Carrefour de l’Isle-Saint-Jean in Charlottetown and attracted about 100 people.
