SUMMARY:RainForest LWOL #1
DESCRIPTION:In 2011 Antoine co-founded Sustainival\, the world’s first green carnival – a full-scale carnival midway that operates entirely on renewable energy. Antoine is also the co-founder of Sustainitech\, a technology commercialization company that builds high-density commercial lettuce farms in shipping containers. \nGiven the inherent risks of these social enterprise startups\, Antoine launched a third company in 2012 called ‘Boring Investments’. This company was built to purchase commercial properties and establish a cashflow foundation as a hedge against the potential startup risks. \nAfter stabilizing these ventures with executive teams in place\, Antoine returned his focus to commercial real estate in early 2016. Boring Investments was rebranded as Sparrow Capital with the purpose of demonstrating how commercial real estate assets can be curated strategically to enhance the cultural fabric of neighbourhoods and the economic resilience of municipal regions. \nAntoine holds a diploma in mediation and conflict resolution from the Vienna ARGE academy and a diploma in Indian philosophy from the University of Wales. Antoine is a Platinum member of the Real Estate Investment Network\, a board member of IDEA – Infill Development in Edmonton Association\, the Planning Director for the Riverdale Community League\, and Chairman of the PowPow Brotherhood. He lives in Edmonton with his wife and 4 children and is an avid mountain biking and backcountry snowboard enthusiast.

SUMMARY:RainForest Summit
DESCRIPTION:There’s more to building a city of innovation than just the basics. You can have talent\, capital\, and business-Efriendly policies and still fall flat as a place for innovation\, while other cities take their place as the next Silicon Valley. Why?

SUMMARY:RainForest Summit
DESCRIPTION:There’s more to building a city of innovation than just the basics. You can have talent\, capital\, and business-Efriendly policies and still fall flat as a place for innovation\, while other cities take their place as the next Silicon Valley. Why? Because you need an innovation ecosystem connecting and building on those basic ingredients. \nThe Rainforest Alberta initiative works together to improve Alberta’s innovation ecosystem\, based on the principles of The Rainforest: The Secret to Building the Next Silicon Valley. We use a scorecard from that resource to measure the quality of Edmonton’s ecosystem twice a year\, with the goal of increasing our score to 800 out of 1000 by 2020. \nanRin \nWho Should Attend?\nThe Rainforest Alberta – yeg Summit brings together a group of Edmonton innovators\, doers\, strategists\, and thought leaders together to evaluate Edmonton’s ecosystem and discuss how we can do better to create a true hub of innovation in Edmonton. \nIf you are passionate about building a stronger\, more resilient\, more innovative economy for Edmonton\, you need to attend this session.
