2009 Fresh Ideas Program

Inspire, Create, Grow

A series of educational workshops will be offered in three themed tracks - Inspire, Create and Grow

  • The Inspire series topics are aimed at youth who are new to entrepreneurship.
  • The Create series topics are geared towards youth who have some knowledge and interest in entrepreneurship, but are seeking tools and resources to move their ideas forward.
  • The Grow series is for more seasoned young entrepreneurs, who want to expand their established entrepreneurial ventures.
  • The Mixed series is for workshops that contain elements of all three tracks.
