October 27 2017

October 27, 2017 (Toronto, ON) – Serial entrepreneur Peter Done is leveraging his three decades of global success to change the way that Canada’s small- and medium-sized businesses run their organizations. The firm which Mr. Done founded over 30 years ago—Peninsula—is an employer resource for HR and employer advice. For many small- to medium-sized businesses, Peninsula’s service replaces the need to maintain a full-time HR department or pay for expensive legal advice. “Nobody offers the comprehensive package that Peninsula does,” Mr. Done explains. “Lawyers are busy doing lots of things but, at Peninsula, we focus on employment, employment, employment.” Mr. Done will officially launch Peninsula in Canada at a November 2 event in Toronto. Canada is Ideal for Peninsula Growth As a featured member of The Sunday Times “Top 100 Rich List,” Peter Done has successfully grown Peninsula in the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand. Peninsula’s track record for global success can be seen in its recent entry into Australia. When it opened its Australian office in 2012, they had only six employees and 100 clients: today, this fast-growing enterprise boasts nearly 1,000 employees and 15,000 clients. Mr. Done is now bringing Peninsula to Canada by focusing on the country’s leading areas for innovation, start-ups and small business growth. Peninsula has already made significant strides in Canada by growing to 40 clients during the first month of operation. Built on a Foundation of Success The November 2 kick-off event will follow the theme of Peninsula’s business model – “Foundations of Success.” A network of local business owners will be hosted by tech entrepreneur Amber Mac and inspired by keynote speaker Josh Linkner. Live music will be provided by The Digs. Reflecting on his long experience, Mr. Done says, “I’ve loved every day of my 30 years at Peninsula. I believe that in business and work, if you’re not motivated and loving what you do, then you should find something else. Life’s too short.” Visit the Peninsula website at www.peninsulagrouplimited.com/ca/
