Building Connections

We all like to work with people we know and trust. We all like to be part of something. The CYC gives you opportunity for all of it, with regular opportunities to connect with like-minded leaders who know the impact and value of community.

Networking Groups

Join us for Entrepreneurs in Motion (EIM) every Friday morning from 8-9 am! Elevate your networking game with a group dedicated to building connections, sharing knowledge, personal growth – and of course, exchanging business referrals. The collaboration among EIM members is energizing, and the camaraderie keeps people coming back! At EIM, our mission is simple: to empower each other through meaningful connections, and help drive our successes.

Welcome to Networking at Noon! Get ready to shake up your lunch break with our biweekly gathering of professionals from various fields. Join us for a dose of fun, laughter, and meaningful connections. Expect lively discussions, quirky icebreakers, and maybe even a few surprises! Come curious, leave inspired. See you at Networking at Noon!

Who wouldn’t benefit from a sounding board now and again? That’s what the Small Business Mastermind offers. Join us monthly for dynamic discussions among non-competing businesses on everything from tackling challenges to seizing
opportunities. Expect invaluable shared experiences from people who’ve “been there”.

The Not-for-Profit (NFP) Mastermind is a group of nonprofit leaders who gather quarterly to chat about challenges, opportunities, and best practices in the nonprofit world. These days we’re doing field trips, visiting various NFP locations! Be part of a supportive community!

The Business Professionals of East Gwillimbury networking group (BPEG) is a vibrant community of local entrepreneurs, small business owners, and professionals dedicated to fostering growth and collaboration within the Central York area.

This group provides a platform for members to connect, share resources, and support one another in their business endeavours. By joining, members gain access to valuable networking opportunities, business insights, and potential collaborations that can help expand their reach and impact. Additionally, being part of this community offers a chance to build meaningful relationships, increase your professional visibility, and stay informed about the latest trends and developments in the business landscape.

Hear from our members

I joined the Mastermind group in November 2020 and find the members are very willing to help each other and we can bounce off ideas in a safe place with no judgement. There are many opportunities to learn from challenges and successes of others and pick up tips to implement in our own business. Last year the group suggested that I claim my business on Google to help raise my profile. This resulted in many new inquiries, and it encouraged me to continue asking for testimonials from my clients.

Tap into the transformative power of community.

We’ve all heard the saying “it’s who you know”. While we tend to think there’s some truth to that, the sentence doesn’t quite capture it all. In the landscape of business, developing authentic relationships is essential for accessing new opportunities, for business and career acceleration, and to keep learning.
