Join us for a juicy and candid peer panel discussion on the challenges and opportunities of paying the new living wage, followed by a networking breakfast!


Panel

  • Kevin Kent (Owner and President of Knifewear)
  • Shannon Neuman (Director of WOW at Righteous Gelato)
  • Megan Stanley (Founder and President of Dogma Training)
  • Yeonsil Kang (CEO of Home Spritz)

The peer panel for this event features four seasoned entrepreneurs from a diverse range of industries, both product and service based, all with varying and unique opinions, insights, and struggles with paying the latest living wage. Some panelists pay their employees the minimum base wage, while others qualify as living wage employers based on total compensation.  Don't miss this opportunity to gain valuable peer-to-peer knowledge from entrepreneurs with first-hand experience navigating this critical topic's complexities and challenges!


Following the 60-minute panel, join us for a networking breakfast where you can learn more about what it means to be a living wage employer. We encourage all attendees to bring along a guest interested in social impact or learning about living wages.


Admission Cost

This event is free for Be Local members and certified Alberta Living Wage Employers. For everyone else, we would like to ask you to make a $5 donation to Momentum, a change-making organization that combines social and economic strategies to reduce poverty.
