Welcome to the New Entrepreneurs Toastmasters Club, where laughter and learning happens simultaneously! Our club is open to the public and our members are from all walks of life.  Throughout our nine years of operation, we have had members who are accountants, financial advisors, engineers, politicians, artists, writers, tech-savvy gadgeteers, web designers, graphic designers, real estate agents, interior designers, university graduates, and professors.   We certainly attract a diverse crowd.  This is our strength.  We can proudly tell you that we are not just for "new entrepreneurs" and business owners.  Some of us are business owners; some aren't.   All of us here at the club have a creative mind and a creative spirit.  Some of us are students; some entrepreneurs.  What we share is a passion to create!   We challenge ourselves and offer each other encouragement.  Feedback from our peers is what keeps us moving forward and improving our public speaking skills.   Many of us enjoy finding ways to generate passive income through investments; have a passion for starting or running businesses; and love the freedom that comes from being self-employed. Some of us are quite analytical and philosophical; and others more spontaneous.  We have quite a variety! What keeps us together is the laughter.  There is not one meeting that does not end with everyone feeling good when they leave the premises.   We have themes that are business-related, fun, and whimsical.  Our meetings are designed to help you grow and develop. -- Greg Gazin, DTM (Distinguished Toastmaster)   Most of our meetings are at The Business Link here in downtown Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.  Click on "Directions" in the menu bar to your left to find us.
