In recent months, the DML has been reaching out to Canadian-owned, affiliated and themed small businesses in the Bay Area, to support them in today’s challenging economy. We’ve heard how the pandemic has impacted businesses, and forced our favourite shops, restaurants, artisans, and service providers to find new ways of reaching customers.

Join experts from our Canadian tech community as they discuss tips and strategies on how to make the most of tech tools and grow sales online, and answer your questions during Q&A.

Please invite any small business or entrepreneur who you think might be interested,
