Unique Partnership Seeks to Help Manitoba’s Entrepreneurs   

One of the challenges small businesses often face is not having the financial resources to engage in the business development activities larger companies can afford. For example, it can be more difficult for small businesses to find resources to show appreciation to staff and/or customers or to entertain potential customers. 

To address this challenge the MCC has joined the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra, the Winnipeg Goldeyes and the Winnipeg Blue Bombers to create the ‘Tickets to Success’ program. 

‘Tickets to Success’ provides a free pair of tickets on an event-by-event basis to MCC members that are small businesses so they can take staff or customers out in appreciation or entertain potential customers. Available events include: 

• Selected Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra regular season concerts  
• All Winnipeg Goldeyes regular season home games 
• All Winnipeg Blue Bombers regular season home games 

Tickets will be available on a first-come first-served basis to Manitoba Chambers of Commerce Corporate members only for each event, although the MCC reserves the right to use its discretion in declining a request if it deems the business is not small or is receiving the tickets too frequently.    

Interested small businesses simply have to contact the Manitoba Chambers by email at thayes@mbchamber.mb.ca .
