We are proud to be investors in YES! Winnipeg. As business leaders of Megill-Stephenson and MNP, we know that commitment, collaboration and passion drive results. You need a dedicated team working towards a common goal with clear deliverables, real metrics and shared accountability. Team work has been the mantra of our business community and has inspired Winnipeg to rise to challenges, surpass expectations and celebrate successes. Ten years ago private sector business leaders invested their time and money to create YES! Winnipeg. Why? Because they witnessed Winnipeg losing new and existing businesses to other major jurisdictions. Thanks to their belief and investment in our city, since 2010 YES! Winnipeg has proactively and unapologetically promoted Winnipeg as the ideal place for business, talent and an unparalleled quality of life. YES! Winnipeg has and continues to drive job creation, attract new businesses and help grow our economy. The successes of the past ten years indicate that Winnipeg is deserving and ready for more, so what's next? As we move into a new five year investment campaign for YES! Winnipeg, 'Real Impact,' we're determined to raise the bar of what's possible for Winnipeg. We have a vision to further drive the economy through a focus on strategic infrastructure development, foreign investment, workforce development, government policy development and the revitalization of downtown. The opportunity to build a better, stronger Winnipeg is within reach but cannot be possible without our investment. As fellow business leaders, we understand there are many competing demands for your resources but now is not the time to step back. Now is the time to step up. If you love this city like we do, please consider supporting YES! Winnipeg over the next five years...Winnipeg needs you now more than ever. Join us. Sincerely, Message from CAMPAIGN CO-CHAIRS Brad Peacock, Campaign Co-Chair President & Chief Investment Officer The Megill-Stephenson Company Andrew Stibbard, Campaign Co-Chair Regional Managing Partner MNP
