Starting Point Student Entrepreneurship Conference
Halifax, Nova Scotia. Contact Kaitlyn Touesnard, Organizer.
This past February, 130 students from all over Canada (as far as Alberta), gathered in Halifax to hear from amazing speakers, learn from experts, and win money for their businesses. In total, students walked away with over $9,000 in funding and prizes. Over the course of three days, students participated in events geared toward giving them the tools to succeed in their ventures. Some of these activities included Master Classes, an Ideation Tournament and Funder Speed Dating.
With the success of the 2015 conference we have decided to run Starting Point again in 2016. The conference will take place February 17th – 19th, 2016 at Saint Mary’s University in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Activities of the conference will explore this year’s theme, “Change the World Through Entrepreneurship” by encouraging students to ‘think big’ and consider the economic, social and environmental implications of entrepreneurship. Students will share best practices, hear from amazing speakers and learn from experts in their field. The conference objectives are as follows:
Connect post-secondary student entrepreneurs from across Canada to share ideas and best practices for running a business while still in school
Engage ambitious high school students who have demonstrated entrepreneurial initiative
Celebrate student business owners
Deliver workshops on essential business skills
Inspire youth with influential entrepreneurial speakers
Support student entrepreneurs and develop strong leaders
