Dear Colleague,
After an 'eventful' start to the September Back to Business/Back to School Year! This week we welcomed three co-op students from local high schools, Gonzaga and John Fraser as we are truly passionate about the future of work & learning in preparing our next generation leaders with the essential skills to thrive beyond high school.
Congratulations to the City of Mississauga, who recently ranked in top 20 for best business locations in Canada for seventh consecutive year. We proudly chose to locate in Mississauga because of its strategic location (proximity to the airport), business ecosystem and the outstanding support services from the Economic Development Office.
In this issue we celebrate MindShare Workspace member, Frank Manners, one of the talented Artists Exhibiting @ The Watershed Art Project, happening at the Etobicoke Civic Centre on Sunday, October 1st. Drop by and immerse yourself in his captivating artwork!

Their commitment, together with our highly-skilled workforce, diverse population, strategic location near major transportation routes and proximity to the Toronto Region, make us the ideal city to attract and retain businesses that drive our economy and help shape our unique identity.”
