Q5 Consulting would like to express their sadness in finding out that EDCE Saskatoon 2017 has been cancelled due to reasons explained in their release. I would like to thank EDCE and Liam Byrne (CEO) for their amazing work and hours of commitment trying to bring something new to the city for small businesses. We need a common place where we can collaborate and learn from one another. Thanks!

On a side note, anyone who is interested in my presentation on Resiliency in the 21st Century, we will still be able to present it starting in September. Call us to make arrangements.

Q5 Consulting's President, Nicholas Quigley, will be presenting a workshop on resilience in small business during the EDCE Conference. For more information go to: https://www.edce.ca/event/saskatoon2017/

Resiliency. We’ve all heard this word, but how does it apply to small businesses and what can be done to ensure that they have it? In the 21st century, small businesses require resiliency more than ever; however, they often don’t know where to look or how to spot weaknesses within their own systems. By unpacking both local and national case studies — which display both well executed and poorly executed resilience strategies — small businesses can pull information which can solidify their resiliency.

Pro Sport Rehab and Fitness was attacked in October of 2016 and yesterday it was released in main stream media. We need to remain vigilant in securing our information. Contact us for a free appointment.

Q5 Consulting will be conducting a lunchtime webinar in conjunction with the Greater Saskatoon Chamber of Commerce on March 30th at noon. Please tune in if you are a member of the Chamber. Ransomware is not a new threat but has been on the rise for the past few years, most recently affecting the University of Calgary in June of 2016. Our live webinar will address the 5 W's of Ransomware and some tactics of protection. 

Q5 Consulting will be on site at the Emergency Preparedness Seminar at the Edwards School of Business on the University of Saskatchewan campus. This is a "FREE" event, so if you're interested, please come out and learn about emergency preparedness. This event is powered by Eventbrite. For more information, please click here.
