Consumers are no longer content to settle for a product or service based on location or price-point\, they are looking to align their spending dollars with brands that align with their values. What does that mean for your organization and Pride marketing initiatives? \nUpHouse\, a CGLCC certified marketing and public relations agency\, commissioned a third-party Queer-owned-and-operated research company\, Mat Meir Consulting\, to gather insights from the 2SLGBTQ+ community across Canada and the USA. \nThe research results aim to help brands better connect and support their Queer audiences in ways that are authentic and meaningful through systemic change\, both internally and externally. Join us as we take a deep dive into what people want and are expecting from brands’ Pride marketing this year and moving forward. \nLearning objectives: \n\nUnderstand consumer expectations and the evolving landscape of Pride marketing\nExplore research insights on how brands can authentically connect with 2SLGBTQIA+ audiences\nLearn strategies for creating meaningful\, value-driven marketing initiatives that foster systemic change\n\nTarget audience: \n\nMarketing and PR professionals\nBrand managers and strategists\nDEI advocates and business leaders\n\nPresentation:\n[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/4″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”3/4″]Alex Varricchio (he/him)\, Co-Owner\, UpHouse Inc. \nWhile leading UpHouse’s impressive growth year over year\, Alex Varricchio has helped develop and maintain UpHouse’s culture of limitless creativity and ideas\, and cultivated a safe space for testing and launching creative projects to learn from. Noticing a trend in businesses moving agency work in-house\, Alex\, and business partner Kiirsten\, created a collaborative agency model based on filling in the gaps—not replacing in-house talent or duplicating efforts.

DESCRIPTION:Tuesday\, November 19\, 2024\, from 12:00 PM to 1:30 PM EST – this is a free online networking event for trans\, non-binary and agender people. \n \nPride at Work Canada is proud to present Matrices: Trans\, Non-Binary & Agender Digital Connect\, a free online networking event for trans\, non-binary\, and agender professionals and jobseekers! We will bring trans\, non-binary\, and agender professionals from across Canada. \nIn this session\, we will explore a peer networking style of learning\, where attendees will dive into meaningful discussions\, share experiences\, and offer mutual support. Participants will engage in multiple breakout sessions\, while forging valuable connections with other professionals and job seekers. Following these individual interactions\, we will come together as a group to reflect on the insights gained and close the event with a collaborative wrap-up. \nHelp us make Matrices a safer event! All attendees will be provided with a set of community guidelines for this event that they will be expected to read and abide by. Pride at Work Canada staff will be present in the main room at all times and volunteer facilitators will be rotating within some of the 1-1 speed networking rounds. Creating a welcoming space is a communal effort\, we look forward to building a braver space based in communicating with compassion. \nCaptioning: At this event\, there will be live captioning in English\, and automated French captioning only available upon request two weeks previous to the event. \nWhy is this event taking place? \nWhile many events and networks are inclusive of trans\, non-binary and agender people there are questions and discussions unique to these community members and their experiences. Pride at Work Canada seeks to create space for professional and job-seeking trans\, non-binary and agender people to find support from and make connections with one another. We hope to be responsive to the needs and suggestions expressed by our attendees as this feedback helps to shape future events. \nWho should attend? \nThe purpose of this event is to provide space for folks who identify as trans\, non-binary and agender. There is no desire to monitor anyone’s gender or create barriers to entry. If you come to this event you will be welcome. While the support of people who identify as allies to trans people and communities is always appreciated please remember that the best support sometimes comes in the form of leaving space for people to connect around their shared identities and lived experiences. \nWho can answer my questions about the event? \nPlease direct questions about this event to Templeton Sawyer (he/him)\, Leaderships Program Coordinator at templeton.sawyer@prideatwork.ca.
