Island Thrive: Conversations with Business and Community Leaders.
Covid-19 rushed into our lives. For some business leaders, the impact was immediately devastating; operations ceased and layoffs were initiated. For others, the experience was manageable but required speedy innovation.Our vision is to create a space where local leaders can have frank conversations about the ups and downs of doing business on Vancouver Island. Our focus in the first season will be about navigating both the opportunities and challenges that the pandemic presents but as time moves forward our focus will shift as businesses evolve. And to be clear, this isn't a podcast just about technology, it's more about business, specifically business on the Island.

In this episode of Island Thrive, Paul and Dave chat with Mayor Stewart Young of Langford. Young shares how he continues to shape British Columbia’s fastest growing city. He talks about some of his accomplishments throughout his 28 years in municipal politics. Young tells listeners about the ways in which he has helped build a local economy as part of an effort to make Langford a city that is attractive to young families, business leaders and even the provincial government — as demonstrated in the “mobile office” pilot program which will keep 100 government workers in the city that they reside in.
