The 9th annual event takes place on Monday, October 23rd. Stephen Chychota , the Executive Director for the Dauphin & District Chamber of Commerce, talks about the learning event and the opportunities it offers those who attend.

“The idea behind Take the Leap is all about sharing stories. It’s an empowering type of conference where we like to bring rural entrepreneurs together, people that are in business, some that are maybe doing a part-time job for their own business looking to take that step full time running their own business. Just inspire them and give them more tools and more contacts to better their business or understanding of how they can get out there and run their own business.”

Registration forms can be found at taketheleapmb.ca. it costs 60 dollars for the registration with profession headshots available for 40. Tickets for the evening event called “The Unwinder” can be purchased at the Chamber office for those who are not attending the entire conference. For those who are attending the conference, the unwinder is covered in the registration price.
