Trevor Linden to speak at Ridge Meadows chamber event

Vancouver Canucks great Trevor Linden will be the keynote speaker as the Ridge Meadows Chamber of Commerce hosts its second Momentum Economic Growth and Success Expo this Thursday, Oct. 22.

The event is happening from 3:30 to 6 p.m. at The ACT Arts Centre.

Linden, nicknamed “Captain Canuck,” is known for his 19 seasons of leading on the ice, and decades giving back in the community.

The chamber invites to public to join a chat exploring his evolution from NHL icon to philanthropist and entrepreneur, and the lessons he’s learned about teamwork, purpose, and building community.

Linden was involved in the creation of Club 16 – Trevor Linden Fitness, and has partnered to build two residential/commercial development projects. He was later the president of hockey operations for the Canucks.

The event also features a home based business expo in the lobby featuring local entrepreneurs, and an economic update with the Business Development Bank’s senior economist Jovanka Charbonneau. She will share expert insights on Canada’s economic landscape and the trends shaping the future of business.

The chamber promotes momentum as inspiring those attending to think bigger, lead stronger, and build momentum in their personal and professional life. They recommend it for business owners, entrepreneurs, professionals and emerging leaders, sports fans, community builders, and those looking for motivation.
