Chris Arsenault at iNovia has had an interesting series of tweets recently — two noting Canadian programs for young entrepreneurs:
- Sir Terry Williams’ program to recruit, train and employ recent graduates in a sort of entrepreneur boot camp in Ottawa (here he is talking about it on BNN); and
- Impact Ventures‘ pilot program based on the famous Y Combinator model to fund and mentor youth-run startups in Waterloo.
He’s also in the middle of an interesting (and necessarily pithy) debate with Craig Netterfeld at Wellington about entrepreneurship nature vs nurture.
I had a convoluted parenthetical here about how I wasn’t actually “following” them because I’m not on Twitter, but it seemed easier just to be on Twitter than to explain why I wasn’t.
