In an effort to support Cape Breton – Unama’ki businesses during the COVID-19 global pandemic, the Cape Breton Partnership is hosting Helping Businesses Respond During COVID-19, a webinar series on topics identified by our business community. 

“Last week, we began reaching out to clients and investors to understand their current realities, most pressing concerns and what would be most helpful right now,” says Carla Arsenault, Cape Breton Partnership President & CEO. “Based on this feedback, we will be hosting a series of webinars with experts on topics we know our businesses need now more than ever.”

The first session has been scheduled for tomorrow, March 24, with additional sessions planned in the coming weeks on a variety of topics including financing, e-commerce, legal, and navigating the many recently announced government programs and supports.

Details on the first webinar are as follow:

• Topic: Accounting 101: Business Response to COVID-19
• Subject matter experts: Rob Wadden, CPA, CA & Patrick Lahey, CPA, CA Grant Thornton Sydney 
• Date: Tuesday, March 24, 2020
