ABOUT THE TBDC AWARDS GALA
From innovation, to community impact, to unyielding perseverance, the TBDC Awards Gala celebrates TBDC Graduate business owners who embody the ‘Essence of Entrepreneurship’. The nominees are people who’ve not only built a successful business from the ground up, but also show a drive, spirit and determination that encourages us all to aim higher, do better and give back to the community.
The evening is not just about celebrating the triumphs of these deserving TBDC Graduates; it’s also about breaking down barriers for entrepreneurs with a disability. Your generous contribution will directly support the creation of TBDC’s New Opportunities Incubator – the first incubator of its kind in North America dedicated to helping people with disabilities start their own business.
Please join us in recognizing TBDC’s outstanding Graduate entrepreneurs at this exciting event while supporting TBDC’s innovative entrepreneurial initiative- unparalleled anywhere else in the world!
