You are invited to join the Greater Peterborough Innovation Cluster and our community partner, Greater Peterborough Chamber of Commerce, for the next in our ” Quarterly Breakfast Series”

 

Presented by:

Presentation by: Bereskin & Parr LLP

More than just “spam” – Canada’s new anti-spam laws and your business.

This event will highlight Canada’s new anti-spam laws that will come into effect on July 1, 2014.

Canada’s new anti-spam laws will come into force on July 1, 2014: and it’s time for businesses to prepare! Though aimed at those unwanted e-mails we get offering cheap prescription medications, this law will also have a far reaching impact on how businesses of all sizes communicate with their customers and potential customers.

In reality, “spam” is something of a misnomer, since the law goes beyond unsolicited e-mail by extending to all commercial electronic messages. The law casts a wide net by impacting most businesses that send electronic communications, such as e-mails.

This presentation by Bereskin & Parr is designed to provide a rundown of Canada’s new anti-spam laws.

Attend to learn how to get your company compliant now!

DATE: Friday, February 14th, 2014

VENUE: The Gathering Space, Gzowski College, Trent University

TIME: 7:30 a.m. – 10:00 a.m.

Please Register by February 10th by clicking here!
