WANY’s Annual Educational Conference in NYC: The British are Coming!
/in Business, coworking, Event Space, Events, Featured, Meeting Rooms, Office Space, Startup, Toronto, workspace /by adminWANY’s (Workspace Association of New York @workspaceany) #BC50 Educational Conference and Celebration was dedicated to establishing greater collaboration within the industry globally, with a focus on cross-Atlantic cooperation. It was also dedicated to the industry’s groundbreaking thought-leaders. The Rostie Group was pleased to attend WANY’s Educational Conference in New York City, representing Toronto’s Waterfront Workspace community.
The first stop was a full tour of 4 WTC (World Trade Center) @4WTC with Mathieu Schepard, Director of Sales for Silver Suite Sales Offices @SilverSuites. We toured their latest centre, which is a clear leader within the industry. Mathieu also gave us the unique opportunity to see one of the few outdoor terraces in 4 WTC building, offering an incredible view of both downtown Manhattan, and One World Trade Center (formerly the Freedom Tower).
The main event on Friday, June 17th took place at Silver Suites Executive Workspace, on the 10th floor of 7 WTC. Thank you to all the exhibitors and sponsors who helped to make the conference both more exciting and more informative.
We would like to congratulate Layton Dodson @officequarter for his appointment on the WANY Board. Additionally, a huge thank you to Angela Olivo from Select Office Suites @SelectOffices, BC@50 Chair.
The Rostie Group established strategic ties to other leaders in the industry both in New York, across the US, and in Britain. We participated in an exchange of information about new trends, innovations, and about the evolution of the workspace industry as a whole.
Below is Martin Senn, from our channel partner, Davinci, accepting an award recognizing their invaluable contributions to the industry from David Alberto, Angela Olivo, and David Kinnaird.
Dara McQuillian, Chief Marketing & Communications Officer from Silverstein Properties @SilvProp (below) gave an extremely informative presentation. He spoke about green energy buildings and the new 2 WTC that will begin construction immediately. If you happened to turn around at this point in the presentation, you would have seen top environmentalist Leonardo DiCaprio @LeoDiCaprio checking in on the developments.
We congratulate our colleague Jennifer Brooke, BCA Executive Director @thebca (pictured left with Angela Olivo and Lori Spiess @VoffiCenters) for her dedicated service to the industry as well as being a great host to our President, Cynthia Rostie, in the UK.
After the conference, David Kinnaird @kinnairdd from essensys @essensysJEFF hosted a celebratory dinner for all of the conference participants. Pictured below are a few of the party-goers.
Spencer Anderson and Richard Fernandes
Cynthia Rostie attended the conference with Richard Fernandes, CEO and Founder of The Staffing Exchange @mycareerbroker.

/in Business, coworking, Events, Featured, Marketing, workspace /by adminJoin us for Earth Day at work!
Come out to 20 Bay Street, WaterPark Place Atrium and Food Court for some Earth Day education and fun! Hope to see you there!
The movement continues. http://www.earthday.org/
We are now entering the 46th year of a movement that continues to inspire, challenge ideas, ignite passion, and motivate people to action.
In 1970, the year of our first Earth Day, the movement gave voice to an emerging consciousness, channeling human energy toward environmental issues. Forty-six years later, we continue to lead with groundbreaking ideas and by the power of our example.
And so it begins. Today. Right here and right now. Earth Day is more than just a single day — April 22, 2016. It’s bigger than attending a rally and taking a stand.
This Earth Day and beyond, let’s make big stuff happen. Let’s plant 7.8 billion trees for the Earth. Let’s divest from fossil fuels and make cities 100% renewable. Let’s take the momentum from the Paris Climate Summit and build on it.
Let’s start now. And let’s not stop.
The Scoop is out for April!
