A Monthly Meetup for Local Business Owners
Chill, Chat & Champion Local Business
A practical, supportive space to talk through frustrations, celebrate wins, exchange ideas and learn from peers who understand the day-to-day realities of running a business. No formal presentations, no pressure. Just honest conversation, local connection and useful support from people on the same journey.
An Hour With People Who Get It
Running a business can be isolating. This is an informal, judgement-free hour to connect with other local owners and leave with a bit more clarity, a few new ideas, and the reminder that you are not doing it alone.
Talk Through Frustrations
A safe space to share the challenges you are facing with people who have likely faced them too, and to hear how others have worked through them.
Celebrate the Wins
The small and big wins of running a business deserve to be shared. Bring yours, and cheer on everyone else's.
Exchange Ideas
Practical, real-world ideas from peers who understand the day-to-day of local business. No theory, no sales pitch.
Hosted by JB Fremy
JB Fremy spent 20+ years moving through banking, enterprise technology and operations consulting before founding JBF Solutions. He's sat on both sides of the table, as an employee, an operator, and an adviser. Chill, Chat & Champion exists because JB believes the most useful business conversations happen informally, between people who are actually doing it.
JB is bilingual in English and French. French-speaking business owners are very welcome.
