The Alberta-based Little Potato Company was recognized at the inaugural Canada’s Best Private Boards Summit earlier this month, winning a prestigious award in the Best Advisory Board category.

The event marked a milestone in Canadian governance, celebrating privately held businesses and their commitment to excellence, according to a press release.

The Summit attracted a diverse group of leaders from various industries, providing attendees with insightful discussions and networking opportunities. The caliber of participants underscored the importance of governance in steering company success, a theme echoed throughout the event.

 “Governance is often overlooked, yet it plays a crucial role in a business’s success or failure,” says Jerry Bouma, Chair of the Advisory Board at The Little Potato Company. “This award highlights our commitment to effective governance and collaboration within our advisory board.”

Attendees praised the Summit for its rich content and the chance to connect with influential leaders. Allan Malcomson, Co-Founder of Meerby, commended the event as “incredibly powerful,” while Heather McLachlin, Independent Director, noted the powerful discussions and memorable moments shared throughout the day.

Organized by MondouxRollins Partners, the Summit aims to foster meaningful conversations about governance in the private sector. With continued support, this initiative is set to enhance private company performance through improved board practices.
