It’s obviously something about your great engineering school, combined with the resources and encouragement to start building and creating stuff while you’re still in school, that positions Waterloo founders so well to be starting companies," says Alexis Ohanian, co-founder of reddit, author and startup investor.

Retired astronaut Chris Hadfield: “Waterloo Engineering is a dominant influence in technology innovation, application and achievement.”  

The life span of a single tweet may only be seconds, but the buzz surrounding Twitter and Square founder, Jack Dorsey's, visit to campus is still resounding weeks later.

During Dorsey's visit to Waterloo Region, hundreds of students, faculty and staff attended his talk at the University of Waterloo titled, "Punk, Dropout, Massage Therapist", but only a select group of students attended the exclusive lunch with Dorsey hosted by Communitech.
