Dear Colleague,
Welcome to our special November 4th Anniversary edition of the MindShare Canadian CoWorker eMag as we celebrate national Career Month across Canada. Do join us for our first face to face/Virtual anniversary/holiday celebration at the MindShare Workspace, Tuesday, December 7, 5-7 pm. Click here to register.
Our passion to nurture the future of work & learning took to the virtual centre stage as we marked history in creating the first 3D immersive learning environment in North America that replicated our MindShare Coworking space (see image above). The 12th Canadian international EdTech conference last month focused on the notion of future-proofing learning across Canada and beyond.
Kudos to Aman Sahota, Co-founder of Ei-Amplified, winner of our 5th Canadian EdTech Startup Challenge. As part of Aman's prize winnings, he'll be incubating at the workspace for the next three months where I will be honoured to mentor this fascinating startup!
Incidentally, one of our past winners 5 years ago, Paper Learning recently received $105M U.S. in private equity funding. Phil Cutler, CEO, Paper Learning also serves as a board of advisor to MindShare Workspace. It was an honour to mentor Phil and help his company thrive!
As innovation is our hallmark, we are currently in planning mode to host a June event from Pre-k to lifelong learning. Stay tuned for more details!
As we're seeing continued growth in demand for suburban coworking, we're looking at expansion next door in our existing space as well as GTA opportunities that have emerged. Please drop me a note if you're looking for space, or are interested in an investment. We are open to strategic partners to support our continued growth.
Congratulations to our friends at Lakeview Village waterfront development in Mississauga, who recently received planning approval to build out 8,000 units that will include an innovation park that we plan to be a part of.
It's never been a more opportune time to launch a new business! Come join us for a tour to learn more about our Black Friday Exclusive Offers!
I hope you enjoy this Special Anniversary Issue of the MindShare Canadian CoWorker eMag.
Special thanks to our team and coworking members who really help make our community workspace an inspiring place to work, learn and grow!
Until next time, stay safe and keep the work & learning curve steep!

1. 10 best practices for productive, low-stress, virtual meetings
thefutureisunlimited.ca: October 4, 2021
“Virtual fatigue, Zoom gloom… these are just two terms that capture the mental and psychological exhaustion triggered by stressful, unproductive virtual meetings.

Driving Innovation through Education
Education shapes society, culture, and the mindsets of students that will lead the future. Every student has the potential to grow, inspire and innovate given the opportunity and resources. The change within education that is needed is implementing students to solve some of the world’s biggest problems through empathy and self awareness. With the current trend and focus on technology, an increased focus on emotional intelligence and experiential learning is required.
