OBIAA’s Rural & Urban Survey Results Webinar
June 9, 2021 @ 12:00 pm - 1:30 pm
The pandemic has changed our lives and in particular it has changed the way we do business. In the blink of an eye, we are now conducting business in ways we only imagined next generations would, not us!
OBIAA, with the support of the Province of Ontario, has conducted an extensive study to understand the impact of the pandemic on the remote working sector, specifically the impact of the urban to rural business shift and the opportunity of being ‘community ready’ for our rural BIAs.
Join us on Wednesday June 9 from 12 – 1pm for a dynamic webinar that outlines this project in detail. We will summarize the findings of two surveys, we conducted, that involved nearly 1000 respondents. Our survey respondents included urban business owners, rural BIA representatives and economic development staff.
This Webinar will present a ‘3-Step Tool Box’ approach to decision-making in order to assist rural communities to become ‘community-ready’ for any potential urban to rural business shift opportunities.
The webinar will be streamed live via Hopin.com, a platform for online events to provide an engaging virtual experience. The link to the webinar will be sent out on June 7 to all registrants.
