Action Entrepreneurship<\/a> is Futurpreneur Canada\u2019s flagship event series that brings together young entrepreneurs, and the stakeholders that support them for learning, networking and idea sharing. At the beginning of 2016, we kicked off Action Entrepreneurship with a series of Community Exchanges in cities across the country which led to our Action Entrepreneurship Canadian Summit, that took place on May 30-31, 2016 in Toronto.<\/p>\n

The Summit brought together hundreds of entrepreneurs, Futurpreneur partners, mentors, and business leaders for two days of great speakers, educational sessions, networking events, and more. In case you missed it, here\u2019s what happened.<\/p>\n

Day One<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Day one started with welcoming remarks from Futurpreneur CEO, Julia Deans, our generous partner, Meridian Credit Union, and a keynote address from Steam Whistle Brewing\u2019s Co-Founder, Greg Taylor. The room was buzzing with the energy of almost 200 entrepreneurs who were eager to learn about the Canadian success story<\/a>, Steam Whistle, and network with each other.<\/p>\n

If we could bottle the energy so far at #AECanada<\/a>, we'd solve all of the worlds energy woes @Futurpreneur<\/a> thanks @RBC<\/a> for the support!<\/p>\n
