Another Sprited investor
By Matt Walcoff, Record staff
Readers of Rex, our bimonthly magazine, may be familiar with Kelly-Sue Labus, whom we featured in the "After Hours" section last year. Labus, then vice-president of business development at the Greater Kitchener Waterloo Chamber of Commerce, is one of the area's most dedicated golfers. And while she may not card in the 70s at Pebble Beach like Dennis Kavelman (the RIM chief operating officer/scratch handicapper famed for his skill and obsession with the links), she did help organize the Golf Fore Women workshops last year and is co-president of the local Executive Women's Golf Association chapter.
Labus recently joined Spirited Investors Corp., a Kitchener private-equity firm, as vice-president of commercial growth. Spirited Investors manages investments for some of the area's best-known professionals and retirees, including Mary Bales, Jim Beingessner, Ted Cross and David Horman.
After Hours, which appears opposite the inside back cover of Rex, features a local business person's hobby. Next month's issue highlights an accountant who maintains a cricket pitch on his home property and has travelled the world with bat and stumps.
