2 FOOD ENTREPRENEURS: PRODUCING ECONOMIC GROWTH IN ONTARIO S LAKE COUNTRY A COMMUNITY SEMINAR FOR FOOD ENTREPRENEURS SUMMARY Date: Monday, October 26, 2015 Time: 9:00 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. Location: Georgian College Orillia Campus 6825 Memorial Ave., Orillia, ON L3V 6S2 The Orillia Campus and the Henry Bernick Entrepreneurship Centre of Georgian College, in partnership with local municipalities and economic development partners, the County of Simcoe, and the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs, are hosting Food Entrepreneurs: Producing Economic Growth in Ontario s Lake Country, a community seminar for food entrepreneurs. This one-day event will take place on Monday, October 26, 2015 and will include panel discussions by successful food entrepreneurs and industry experts on topics such as, raising capital, scaling up your business, marketing, distribution, and much more. Featured at the event, will be an exhibition of approximately 25 local food producers and processors who will showcase and sell their locally made products, provide samples and be able to share their unique entrepreneurial stories with attendees. This event addresses the growing need for education and training in the area of food entrepreneurship development. Local, sustainable food has increasingly become a priority for consumers and, in response, municipalities recognize the benefit of value added agriculture/product development as a strategic imperative for economic growth. The seminar capitalizes on these agricultural and economic development trends and will offer tools and resources so agri-food businesses can position themselves advantageously to meet new consumer demand. The seminar will focus on what is needed to further develop the local food economy and particularly what local entrepreneurs need to bring their food and beverage businesses to higher levels of productivity and profitability. Learning will take place through plenary and breakout sessions which will present successful local food entrepreneurs, expert panels and a lunch catered by a local chef. Participants (target 150), including aspiring artisan food processors and producers, will learn how to cultivate a successful food business from existing entrepreneurs and industry experts. The event is expected to stimulate the regional agrifood economy through the development of a more comprehensive food business support system that may include business/kitchen incubation, distribution tools, programming, mentoring and more. Georgian College and regional economic development partners are committing time and resources to ensure the seminar has a significant and lasting impact on the regional food economy. This was the experience of the first Community Seminar for Food Entrepreneurs held in February 2014 by Georgian College South Georgian Bay Campus in Collingwood in partnership with the counties of Grey, Bruce and Simcoe, entrepreneur support agencies and The Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs (OMAFRA). It targeted businesses in South Georgian Bay. The initial call for 50 participants immediately Page 1
3 grew to 150 and the event was extremely well received with overwhelmingly positive evaluations. The network and training opportunities were productive and worthwhile and several operations have reported an increase in capacity and sales. Similar success was had this year at the well-attended Food Entrepreneurs: Preserving our heritage; creating our future in Orangeville on February 25, 2015 and Food Entrepreneurs: Growing Innovation in Owen Sound on April 20, This kind of impact on the food business community is exactly what Simcoe County and neighbouring municipalities need to propel the local food economy to the next level and realize economic and tourism development as well as job creation. The success of the event will be measured through formal surveys completed by the attendees that will capture information on the participants ongoing support requirements and identify future opportunities to develop the regional agriculture community. Results will be shared with organizers and will help determine next steps and potential new programs that could support local food producers, processors and retailers. One avenue for development may be a partnership with Georgian College's Centre for Applied Research and Innovation to conduct some primary research to better understand the feasibility and viability of a food business incubator to support the region.
