Strong communities are built on strong relationships. That’s why it’s important for Ontario Brokers and elected officials to connect, share insight and build familiarity.
This summer and fall, IBAO is hosting a series of Political Mix & Mingles across Ontario—community-driven gatherings where brokers, MPs and MPPs come together to engage in meaningful conversations about the key issues impacting our industry and communities.
Events are run in partnership with local broker Affiliates. Each one is designed to foster honest dialogue in an informal, welcoming setting, where introductions are easy and shared understanding grows naturally.
Registration for IBAO Members is free. Come join us!
