Let Them Talk!

“A true delight, Dwania is a dedicated, brilliant business strategist. With a laser focused approach, Dwania’s ability to navigate and drive business success comes naturally. With a boasting resume, she has proven just how impactful she is at driving business growth and forging successful relationships; truly defining what it means to be a success.” –Jillian C.

Dwania is one of the best strategists I’ve ever met. Not only she is talented but she is genuine and care about the people she helps. Her support has been instrumental in launching my first business, and in strategizing the launch of my second venture. – Darine BenAmara, The Smart Woman

“I met Dwania through Sheridan EDGE 1:1 mentorship program. She is a knowledgeable start-up advisor with a positive outlook and a great number of valuable insights. Her positivity is refreshing and very encouraging. Dwania openly shared with me her own experiences and offered fresh perspectives during our strategy calls for a successful start to my business. She is genuinely supportive and full of belief in womens potential in the world of business. I truly appreciate Dwania’s time, engagement and active support to women entrepreneurs.”

Canadian Small Business Women, in partnership with Volition, presents 2021 Young Entrepreneur’s Pitch Conference

August 29, 2021 – We are thrilled to announce that we will be partnering with Volition for a second year to present the 2021 Young Entrepreneur’s Pitch Conference. 

This virtual conference is taking place November 20, 2021, and will showcase women-lead companies across Canada in the Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) space. Building on the success of the 2020 Young Entrepreneurs Pitch Conference, you can expect a variety of panel discussions and workshops from industry experts, as well as speed networking, a vendor hall, and pitch competition.

While all are welcome to attend the conference, pitch applications (opening this fall) will be open to young entrepreneurial women (aged 19-45) in the CPG industry, from across Canada. All applicants will gain access to a Volition Pitch Bootcamp, and audience members will have the opportunity to cheer on and vote for their favourite Finalist pitching at the Pitch Conference.

“Last year, we were honoured to partner with Volition to bring our dreams of hosting a pitch conference to life. The success of last year’s event was evident in the responses of our pitchers, speakers and guests. This year, we are back together again and the theme is Consumer Packaged Goods. With the expertise of hundreds of pitch competitions under their belt and our conference producing history, this year’s event will not disappoint. I am looking forward to hearing this year’s pitch submissions!” 

– Dwania McLarty-Peele, Founder Canadian Small Business Women 

 

“We are so excited to be working with CSBW yet again to support and advance Canadian women in business. This past year put incredible strain on CPG companies–and women-led businesses in particular–as they have had to juggle shifting demands, supply chain issues, employee needs, and intense and variable growth patterns. We have seen such innovation and some really amazing new companies emerge this past year, and want to provide space to acknowledge, celebrate, and support this sector and the young women within it.” 

– Melanie Ewan, Managing Partner Volition

Important Announcement

Dwania McLarty- Peele, founder and Executive Director of Canadian Small Business Woman took to social media to apologize after cancelling her scheduled annual Immigrant Women Small Business Expo in Toronto .

 A couple of  months prior to the scheduled event, Dwania was diagnosed with breast cancer after discovering lumps in her right breast. The tumors have since been removed and she is now undergoing various tests to assess what measures will be taken next.  “This decision was made with a heavy heart,” said Dwania Peele. “I wouldn’t host an event if I couldn’t do it at my absolute best. Right now I have to focus on my health and well being.” Ms.Peele is in good spirits stating

“This is out of my control. I am alive, able bodied and I’m spending a great deal of time with my family and friends. I’m not going to say that cancer has changed my life for the better. However; this disease made me far more patient, and gave me yet another cause to fight for.”

Dwania has been in communication to those who have been a part of Canadian Small Business Women throughout the years. She sends her deepest apologies to all the supporters of Canadian Small Business Women for any inconvenience this might cause. She is heart-broken to have to cancel this Expo. She sends her gratitude to participating vendors, sponsors, speakers, special guests, staff, attendees, and those who’ve helped behind the scenes with putting this event together.

 Candian Small Business Women will continue to operate as a hub for women to support, network, and grow together. Dwania Peele looks forward to a speedy recovery and being back on the conference floor for 2020.

In support of changing the future of Breast Cancer and Breast Cancer Research,  Canadian Small Business Women invites you to support CIBC Run For The Cure. We invite you to run or walk with us on October 6th, 2019 in Toronto. With 1 in 8 Canadian women expected to be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime, your support matters more than ever.

Mississauga Blood Donor Drive

You have the power to give life…

When you donate blood, a unique feeling of pride unites you with donors everywhere. When people donate blood, stem cells, cord blood, or become an organ, eye or tissue donor, what they are really doing is giving life.

Join the movement…

Half of all Canadians will either need blood or know someone who will need blood at some point in their lives. Yet only four percent of Canadians donate. Our job is to change that. At Canadian Blood Services, we’re responsible for recruiting and collecting blood, plasma, and platelets at 36 permanent collection sites and more than 14,000 donor clinics every year.

Join Canadian Small Business Women at our first Blood Donor Drive on July 21st, 2018 at Heartland Blood Donor Clinic: 765 Britannia Rd W #2, Mississauga, ON L5V 2Y1
