From March 2009 to February 2010 I participated in a government funded business program for young entrepreneurs called BizStart. Essentially, BizStart paid me a modest wage to get business training, utilize the knowledge in a complete business plan, and apply that business plan to my business.
Going in to the program I didn’t identify myself as an entrepreneur and certainly not as someone working in the business world… Today, to be frank, I still don’t think of myself as those things but, thanks to BizStart, on some level I probably am.
The Yonge Street Media Blog just did an article on the BizStart program and interviewed me for content. The journalist, Paul Gallant, asked insightful questions and was a sympathetic listener. It was a very pleasant interview indeed.
