The Global Entrepreneurship Week, presented by the University of Ottawa from November 18 to 24, will be held in parallel with the world's largest celebration of innovators and agents of change who bring new ideas while creating value in their communities.

During the week, over 18 activities and events will be held across campus to inspire innovators, difference makers and risk takers to help them reach their potential. The University of Ottawa's Entrepreneurship Hub is proud to have been able to put together such an interesting roster of events, which will undoubtedly stimulate and nurture the entrepreneurial spirit that drives the University of Ottawa campus.

“uOttawa’s entrepreneurship ecosystem has been growing over the past several years,” said Kathleen Kemp, eHub Manager. “The Entrepreneurship Hub, along with its faculty and services partners, are looking forward to hosting Global Entrepreneurship Week again this year, which they hope will be the biggest year yet. We relish the chance to showcase the spirit that drives our innovators, our community, and the success of our many entrepreneurial initiatives across campus.”

Highlights include The Crunch, a three-day event for those who want to experience the thrill of starting a business and making a difference.
