Have you ever wondered what it takes to become an entrepreneur truly?

Is it skill, knowledge, drive, or maybe it’s all about being genuinely passionate about creating sustainable change in a specific sector or industry?

EPICentre explored these concepts throughout March in “Anatomy of an Entrepreneur.” A video series that allowed us to catch up with various graduates of EPICentre programs to learn more about their journey into entrepreneurship and beyond. Some continued on their paths while others pivoted, but everyone shared one thing in common – the value of their entrepreneurial knowledge.

From mental health resources to 3D printing and everything in between, each entrepreneur shares their story and how their passion for sustainable and impactful change fueled their desire to start a business. 

Check out season 1 of our video series below:

All the interviews were conducted by EPICentre Marketing Administrative Coordinator Layan Barakat, a graduate of the University of Windsor’s Communication’s Media and Film program.
