Green Entrepreneurship Workshop Series

Thursday, March 10, 2022 3:00 pm - 4:30 pm EST (GMT -05:00)


The University of Waterloo’s Entrepreneurship @ Environment Office (E@E) Green Entrepreneurship online workshop series continues this Thursday, March 10, with a workshop on “Private Enterprise and New Entrepreneurs: How Established Companies can support New Entrepreneurs”. Starting a new venture in the environmental sphere is challenging. Can established firms provide resources or support to those that are just starting out?

Held in collaboration with the Commission for Environmental Cooperation (CEC) this series brings together dedicated youth, key researchers and successful entrepreneurs from across North America in a series of engaging 90-minute sessions. Last week’s workshop was attended together more than 150 students and youth from across the globe!
