There’s a group in this city whose mission involves getting downtown BIA (DWBIA) business owners to know each other. Department of Unusual Certainties (DoUC) is in Windsor for a few weeks, and they will likely make waves that will last much longer than that.
The reason they do this is explained in their Speed Dating for Store Owners event coming up on July 8th. I love this idea. I’ll be there. If you own a business downtown, or you might in the near future…you should be there!

Speed Dating for Store Owners (Downtown is more than just a 3 minute romance)
Speed Dating Events
Prompted by the belief that a neighbouring business’ success can reap benefits for ones own, Department of Unusual Certainties (DoUC) has invited downtown business owners to meet their neighbouring business owners on July 8th, 7:00pm to 8:00pm, at 406 Pellisier (@ Park St.).
Using speed dating as a model for a large group of people to have one-on-one introductions to each other; the focus of the evening is to create a platform for sharing experiences, frustrations, and successes, as a way to identify common struggles and move towards solutions.

Speed Dating for Store Owners is part of a larger project by the DoUC called Storefront Success Stories that seeks to work with Windor’s downtown business community to create new connections, understanding, and practices.
Department of Unusual Certainties is currently in residency as part of the Storefront Residency for Social Innovation hosted by Windsor-based artist collective Broken City Lab. Working out of 410 Pellissier for the months of June and July, they are completing projects that include mapping the downtown, interviewing business owners and their customers, and finally condensing their research into a ‘tip-sheet’ to aid existing and new downtown business ventures. DoUC is based in Toronto but has completed projects across Canada and Internationally.
