SPEED NETWORKING

How it works

Veteran entrepreneurs are paired with an expert for a 10-minute one-on-one confidential conversation. Each entrepreneur starts with sharing about their business or idea followed by questions, and an expert provides their feedback and suggestions. After the 10 minutes, the pair returns to the virtual lobby, and it starts again. Participants are paired seven times over an hour half period.

About OE Boot Camp

The boot camp run in partnership with our academic partners (Laval University, Dalhousie University and the University of Regina). Our business boot camps are designed to help transitioning Canadian Armed Forces members and recently released Veterans rapidly advance their entrepreneurial and business skills and knowledge. Each boot camp class is comprised of approximately 20 burgeoning entrepreneurs from across Canada who arrive with a business idea and a passion to learn. There is no cost to participate due to the generous support from program funders and sponsors. Participants arrive with a developed business idea and learn best practices in marketing, finance, business planning and accounting from business school faculty and industry experts.
