Office Hour: "Should I Start a Business or Get a Job?"

Waterloo Engineering students and alumni are invited to participate in an exclusive virtual Office Hour "Should I Start a Business or Get a Job?" sponsored by Ten Thousand Coffees.

Let the great debate begin! On July 15th, join us for our most controversial Office Hour yet: deciding if you should stake out and create your own venture or accept that job offer. If you’re still navigating your next steps as a fresh graduate or if you've ever thought about starting your own business but didn’t know if it was the right move, this is the event for you!

Travis Ratnam (BASc ’06. electrical engineering) remembers the first time he felt self-conscious about his grades.

In elementary school, the classroom bully went through everyone’s report cards, “trying to figure out who the dumbest kid was and concluded it was me,” he says.

Ratnam is using lessons learned from that early setback to help other children as the co-founder and CEO of Knowledgehook, a software platform that uses artificial intelligence to help teachers uncover each student’s unique learning needs.
