Looking Back, Moving Forward: Insights from 1996 Still Shaping Our Future As we continue to celebrate the rich history of PRTY leading up to our 125th anniversary, we’re revisiting some of the insightful contributions made by our team over the years. One such piece is an article written by our Principal Architect, Eliseo Temprano, back in 1996 for The Ottawa Citizen. In this article, Eliseo emphasized the importance of turning penalties into incentives for developers and small businesses. He argued that excessive fees and bureaucracy stifled growth and innovation, urging governments to simplify processes and provide incentives for those willing to invest in their communities. This approach, he suggested, would lead to job creation, economic revitalization, and a more vibrant housing market. What’s remarkable is how these insights remain as relevant today as they were nearly three decades ago. In an era where we continue to navigate complex regulatory environments, the idea of fostering growth through incentives rather than obstacles is more crucial than ever. At PRTY, we continue to advocate for smart, sustainable development that benefits both our clients and the communities we serve. As we honor our past, we also look forward to applying these timeless principles to the challenges and opportunities of today.

Here's another eye-opening takeaway from Steven Bartlett's event at the Brisbane Convention Centre, shared by Vicki! It's all about embracing the mindset of failure. Steven's words resonate: ‘Don't avoid failure, because until you fail, you don't know how to succeed’. It’s about shifting our perspective and recognising that failure is simply a part of the journey towards achieving our goals. #EmbraceFailure #SuccessMindset #StevenBartlettEvent

What an extraordinary day of firsts it turned out to be. I’m immensely proud to have continued the judging process for the new Trailblazer Award today, alongside my fellow judges Hollie Whittles from Purple Frog Systems Ltd and Michael Wright from Aico, for the upcoming #SBAwards, put on by Shropshire Chamber of Commerce. We encountered four remarkable businesses, each surpassing expectations and embodying the essence of the award. Their distinctive attributes truly set them apart. It was great to discover that three out of the four finalists were situated within 2 miles of each other, with some even collaborating. Among the highlights of the day were, throwback to some vintage tech from Preloved Tech Ltd and their links to Icehocky, exploring exiting new premises at Exascale and moving a cherry picker for a picture, to testing equipment and implementing barcoding for product traceability at CEL Group and finally, experiencing a live demonstration of stud seaman harvesting at Stallion AI Services……Yes, you read that correctly – it certainly made for an eventful day! A common thread among all four finalists was their passion. This contributed to the diligent deliberation and number-crunching that followed. Each participant has already become a winner by making it this far. My key takeaway? Let’s take pride in being part of Shropshire and cherish the incredible businesses that call it home. #business #businessawards #trailblazer #innovation #shropshire #awards #wealthmanagement #judges #internationaltrade #collaberation

Celebrating endings is often overlooked amidst the anticipation of fresh starts. Yet, these closures carry immense significance, marking the conclusion of chapters that pave the way for new beginnings. They signify growth, transformation, and the opportunity for renewal. Every conclusion signifies a milestone—a diploma earned, a relationship bid adieu, or even the closure of a significant life phase. These endings aren't merely conclusions; they embody the wisdom gained, the experiences cherished, and the lessons learned. They encapsulate the stepping stones that lead to new adventures and prospects waiting on the horizon. Celebrating endings isn't about disregarding the past; it's about acknowledging its significance while embracing the prospects of tomorrow. It's a time to reflect, appreciate, and bid farewell with gratitude, recognizing that each ending, no matter how challenging, prepares the groundwork for a fresh start. Welcoming the new requires bidding adieu to the old—creating space for growth, innovation, and novel experiences. As we celebrate endings, let's embrace the change they bring, for they lay the foundation for the exciting and unknown opportunities awaiting us. After all, without endings, there would be no new beginnings. #itsnotend #beginning #newbeginnings #celebrateyourself #swenservices #freeconsultation
