“At the grassroots level, there is a need to tie entrepreneurs into local networks and then to tie further into national network to learn best practices from other startup communities. Learning the lessons from across Canada accelerated our own learnings in York Region and provides a bigger, national context to the local activities within startup communities.” Lucas Chang, serial entrepreneur and Leader of Startup York Region, is working to foster the York Region startup community and advancing opportunities for young entrepreneurs. Lucas introduces listeners to the York Region startup community and offers tangible tips for building startup communities from the ground up to help local entrepreneurs reach their full potential. On this week’s podcast, we will talk about building a startup community a stone’s throw away from a major urban centre - AKA the GTA - and fostering youth entrepreneurship.
