Arcas Chief Strategy Officer assists with celebrated book launch

Recently launched by the Prairie Policy Centre, the book Birth of a Boom: Lives & Legacies of Saskatchewan Entrepreneurs, by Saskatoon-based author Suzanne Paschall, is an insightful, personal look at the stories of 13 successful Saskatchewan entrepreneurs.

An inspiring and historical profile, Birth of a Boom recalls the stories of individuals and families who came to the province and worked hard in creating better lives for their families and communities over the generations.

“Despite popular misconceptions, this province has always had its share of entrepreneurs,” says Prairie Centre President and Arcas Group Chief Research & Strategy Officer, Dean Gagne . “I believe Birth of a Boom will help to continue to change perceptions and help inspire young people to stay in Saskatchewan. That’s why Prairie Centre will be donating copies of the book to every high school library in the province.”

The book features a foreword written by Dragon’s Den TV celebrity and Saskatchewan entrepreneur, W. Brett Wilson. The Wilson Centre for Entrepreneurial Excellence at the University of Saskatchewan has come onboard as a partner in the book, including it on its supplemental text list for all students in its program.
